YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump visited the National Institute of Health on Tuesday as the number of deaths due to the coronavirus COVID19 climbed to 9 in Washington state.

Washington state's Department of Health says there are 27 confirmed cases, all in the Seattle area.

The nine cases include sevearl tied to a suburban Seattle care facility that has reported multiple virus cases and deaths.

The number of cases in the U.S. overall climbed past 100 scattered across at least 14 states.

Around the world, deaths in Italy surged to 79, making it the deadliest reported outbreak outside China.

Twenty-three members of Iran's Parliament and the head of the country's emergency services were reported infected.

South Korea started drive-thru testing. And in Spain's Basque region, at least five doctors and nurses were infected and nearly 100 health care workers were being held in isolation.

The mushrooming outbreaks contrasted with optimism in China, where thousands of recovered patients were going home and the number of new infections dropped to the lowest level in several weeks.

Worldwide, more than 92,000 people have been sickened and over 3,100 have died, the vast majority of them in China.

The number of countries hit by the virus reached at least 70, with Ukraine and Morocco reporting their first cases.
