The White House on Sunday extended its guidelines for stopping the spread of the CCP virus to April 30.
President Donald Trump announced the extension during a briefing in the Rose Garden. The president cited a modeling estimate that suggests the peak in the death rate for COVID-19 will occur in two weeks.
On March 16, the White House issued a set of social distancing and sanitary guidelines for Americans to follow for 15 days. At the time, the hope was that two weeks would be sufficient to slow the spread of the virus.
“Nothing would be worst than declaring victory before the victory is won. That would be the greatest loss of all,” Trump said, adding that everyone should follow the guidelines. “The better you do, the faster this whole nightmare will end.”
The White House guidelines call on Americans to avoid social gatherings in groups of more than 10 people, refrain from eating in bars, restaurants and food courts, avoid non-essential travel, and to not visit nursing homes. The guidelines also include basic sanitary measures, like washing hands frequently and not touching one’s face.
The president said that the White House will present its plan for the month of April on Tuesday, including the latest data and the overall strategy.
