the country, there are several hot spots that are emerging. >> everyone's curve is going to be different. new york is going to look different than idaho or jackson, mississippi or new orleans. we see hot spots like dough tet and no, sew orleans. as cases rise across the united states, president trump has not walked away his expectation that the country will be able to roll away by easter. >> i think the president was trying to make an aspirational projection to give people some hopes. he's listening to us when we got to reevaluate in realtime and any decisions we make has to be on the data. >> billionaire bill gates says the partial shutdown across the countries are not enough to stop this spread.

the country needs a 6-10 week extreme shutdown to get ahead of the curve here. in the u.k. boris johnson has tested positive for the coronavirus. he's self-quarantining of what he calls a slight temperature and cough. i want to go to shimon prokupecz w who's in new york. tell us where you are now and what the governor has to say. >> reporter: thank you governor for joining us. i want to get to situations at the hospital. i have been talking to a neuro doctor, her name is vickie lane describing tough questions. they are seeing and they have a lot of patients. one of this things that's going on, some of the patients who

need oxygen and other kind of medica medical caribe but not the most critical. other hospitals to relief some of the backlog so they can focus more of the serious folks that need care. >> you will see more and more of this. hospitals are reaching capacity. the first step as for hospitals surging the capacity level is that system has to redistribute patients among the system. we are talking to the new york city hospital system. if you have a hospital that's up near capacity, redistribute to other hospitals. if the projections are right, the numbers continue to grow. you will see every hospital get the capacity. that's when the facility like this will kick in which is an over flow facility for the hospital system written off.

>> reporter: what she's saying that's the one priority. we need to move these people out. do you think something like that is going to happen as the next part of this. what do you think the city try to do to alleviate that? >> we have the department of health talking to new york city and saying you have to distribute patients among your hospital system so you are not over burdening any one hospital necessarily. we get to the point where all the hospitals are at capacity then you need the over flow. >> that's this facility and three others. i asked the president to build another 4,000 beds because we are expecting by the the projections that you will over flow the hospital of the entire system. >> ventilators. where are we on the ventilators and how are things going? that seems to be the most

critical aspect. >> if you take a look at the room behind us, what do you need? you need a bed and staff and you need equipment and that ventilator. the people who'll be in care they need that respiratory system, that's avent lat ventil. we are working on it everyday. >> reporter: were ventilators found in a storage facility where the president is claiming there were ventilators found? >> that's incorrect and grossly uninformed. the point is we have ventilators in the stockpile and didn't send them to the hospitals yet. the hospitals have enough

ventilators to date. the numbers are going up. we are planning for apex to high point at 21 days. that's when we need 30,000 ve ventilators. right now they are in the stockpile. it is just ignorant, of course you don't need them today. we need them when the apex which is 30,000, we are not there yet. >> reporter: has the apex move for you? we are talking about 14 days yesterday and the last few days, has it move now or 21 days or some sign -- optimism of all of this. >> if you want optimism, the optimism, the rate was doubling every two days and then it went to a rate of three to four days. the rate of doubling is slowing. that's the good news.

the bad news is the number is still going up. but the rate of the doubling has declined but the cases are going up. the question is how high can they go up and how long do they stay there before they come on flatten the curve and drop. >> reporter: finally one more point on the sense of optimism, surgeon general this morning saying he's hopeful that the number hers here in new york wi start to come down next week. is there any chance of that happening or do you see -- >> look, when you hear from federal officials, i hope this and i think this and i believe this. i hope the numbers come down tomorrow. i hope the president is right. i deal with numbers and i deal with science. i don't deal with feelings and emotions and what i am like to see, right?

that would be reckless and negligent of me as a government official. i am dealing by the best medical minds on the globe. dealing with those projections, preparing for those projections and then we hope for the best. you don't see that in any numbers. you won't hear that in any health officials or dr. fauci. this is all hope and aspiration and hyperbole which is great but i hope you don't operate that way. i hope you operate on feedbacac data, otherwise, you are doing a disservice for our nation. >> reporter: other states are about to face what new york is going through. what's your advice to them? >> make the hard choices sooner.

politicians don't like to make hard choices. closing the schools is hard, telling people non-essential workers have to stay home is hard. closing the gyms and restaurants. it is hard but it is smart and the sooner you do it, the better. be prepare and get that projection and follow the numbers and don't follow p politicians or your songs or hyperboles, get the numbers and be prepared and get the equipment and get it sooner because it is a global race for this equipment. if you don't get it now. you are not going to have it when you need it. >> thank you, governor. i really appreciate it. >> thank you. there is the governor brianna, i am going to toss it back to you.

>> government and health fis officials in all 50 states are ramping up preparations for the surge. i want to check in with cnn's correspondent amara walker who has a break down on the number of cases and the location of where you are watching. what you are talking at? >> we are seeing growing number of cases everyday. right now we have more than 92,000 cases of the coronavirus here in the united states. that number just jumped up from a few minutes ago according to our cnn tally. more coronavirus cases than anywhere in the world right now. it is surpassing china and italy. let's show you a map to give you a break down of how each state has been impacted. you can see the darker red color indicates with the most cases more than 5,000 cases. you can see washington,

california, new york, new jersey, they're in the shade of medium to dark red. the lighter color means the less number of cases. let's go now to the hot spots or the hardest hit states. new york as we have been talking about has the most case oss of coronavirus. 44,000 cases of the coronavirus. if you do the math there, new york has almost half of all u.s. cases from the country. you were hearing from shimon and governor cuomo, there is a desperate need of ventilators. two patients can share one ventilator. new jersey at number two, also hard hit with more than 6,000 cases. we have been hearing a lot about california and michigan, there has been about 3,000 of these

states. washington as you may recall was once the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak. now to michigan at number five. the number of coronavirus cases there have skyrocketed to nearly 3,000 when less than a week ago the cases there were at 350. michigan is one of the fastest growing outbreak. the governor requested a major disaster declaration there. let's go to the desk now. the u.s. has more than 1300 coronavirus deaths. new york once again has the most deaths with 519 reported fatalities and the numbers just went up a few minutes ago with 385. washington is the second most death at 105. louisiana is very interesting, it has seen coronavirus cases climbed this week, it has the third highest number of deaths. it is emerging at hot spots. the mardi gras celebration contributed to the spread there

and state health experts are monitoring the clusters right now at six nursing homes in louisiana. that's the latest brianna, back to you. >> amara, thank you for that report. amy klobachar says her husband is turning the corner with his battle with the coronavirus. she will join us live next. as we see live picture of a ship arriving in california, this is cnn's special live coverage. in america we all count. no matter where we call home, how we worship, or who we love. and the 2020 census is how that great promise is kept. because this is the count that informs where hundreds of billions in funding will go each year for things like education, healthcare, and programs that touch us all. complete the census online, by phone, or by mail. shape your future. start here at 2020census.gov

candidate and now i want to ask you about your role as a wife given the fact that your husband has coronavirus. how is he doing? >> he's doing a little better. he finally turned the corner. he got out of the hospital and he had a temperature over 100 degrees for ten days and he ended up going in after he was coughing up blood and they checked him right away and said he had pneumonia and he was on oxygen for four or five days and he's now recovering at home. they don't know whether he'll be contagious so i am going to go wave to him outside the window and i am staying at my colleague's apartment, senator smith because i can't go there. it is something that so many americans know right now, they can't go visit their loved ones. they are relying on these incredible healthcare providers that they only get to talk to

them over the phone. i want to thank them but i want to say to the rest of america that this is not easy. we know how hard this is going to be. he's 52 and healthy his whole life. his story is follow the rule. at least he did not get others sick. the minute he thought he had a cold, he stayed in the apartment. >> you had no idea how he got it and -- i he alone s he alone in apartment? how is this working for other people across the country? >> well, you know he's pretty self-sufficient guy. he wants to teach his class remotely. i don't think he'll be doing that right now and our daughter is in new york ain her apartmen with her roommate. she's been calling and we knew

he's coming back a little when he did words with friends with her after ten days. you have to try to be creative. i kept on saying what's your temperature and i did that like every hour, i would call him before he got in the hospital because you don't know how they're doing because they start to get loopy and they're tired and sleeping all the time so you got to keep on checking in. there are so many worse stories and some viewers know what i am talking about, people who are on ventilators right now. people who needs to be on ventilators radioig ntradi righ. 14 days i did not have symptoms. it makes you understand why we need those tests. we are not going to have the capacity as we are seeing in new york or new orleans and other places to be able to bring everyone in the hospital at the

same time. >> we have heard before the segment of the governor of new york saying the ventilators are desperately needed and we are hearing that from the governor of michigan and growing numbers of governors and local leaders across the country and there continues to be the blame game going on between those safe leaders and the president and people in the administration. as a senator, how do you want this to be resolved right now? >> i want the president to lead and not spend a quarter of his press conferences blaming other people and going after governors. i want the president, i wish he had planned ahead when this was happening in china in terms of getting those matests ready to and getting those approved right

away on the serum. i think that's what we should be doing now and equipment for people in the hospitals. he has to do everything he can to lead and not say he's a backup. this is a national pandemic. this is a global pandemic. this is a time when leaders lead instead of blaming the governors who are basically on the front line trying to do their best every single day. >> you and your colleagues passed a bipartisan way, historic $2 trillion of disaster relief bill effectively which is going to be voted on momentarily, if not as we speak in the house of representatives. that has $400 million for states to assist in elections that are being disrupted by the pandemic. this is a specific issue for you since we are in an election year. is that enough? >> no, it is not.

that's why i have been fighting with my colleague to big time up our voting at home and voting by mail for this election. there is time to do this. every state in the country allowed us one way or another. they have to make sure that early voting places are opened at least 20 days ahead and of course we need the funding for the mail in ballots. we got some. we are going to never give up. we are going to put a major efforts in this. i am so glad the house is voting. i thought it is ridiculous that one member would hang up like he did. i guess that's his right. this bill is not perfect. it is not everything that i wanted to be. it is a relief for the country of the people of our country of unemployment and making sure we are getting more funding out there for our hospitals. >> i appreciate what speaker

pelosi has done and senator schumer and durbin and all the leaders in our senate working so hard to make it better. >> one last question of your message to families out there who have loved ones who have this virus and who are struggling or are very, very sick. >> i would say that you say some prayers and you do your best to monitor the person because you most likely are not going to be able to be with them. i am telling you i wish that i have my husband -- at least he took his phone charger so we can keep calling him all the time. making sure that you can keep in touch with them and that you have a contact in the hospital trying to find one because it is just, it is the hardest thing. you literally are not going to be able to see them. you have to give patients to

healthcare providers on the front line there. they are struggling and they don't have enough equipment and they are doing everything they can. >> that's what i would say. it is going to happen to everyone. there is going to be someone in your family that this happens to. you have to be ready for that moment and make tough decisions and not going into that room with them because i can't get my kids sick or grandma sick. that's the hardest thing but the best thing for our country. >> senator, thank you so much, we are so happy to hear from you that your husband john is home and he's recovering. >> it is great news. >> stay well. i am going to toss it back to brianna keilar. >> thank you so much senator klobachar and dana. an emotional plea from the

senate's governor. >> i stand here, i can't tell you how frustrating it is. we gotten to the point where our basic decisions is until the things show off here and coming off to mass. it does not exist. our first responders and healthcare workers and everybody deserves to have that care. i am telling you we are kill ourselves trying to make it happen. >> with me now is the president of massachusetts general hospital, sir, thank you so much for joining us. the number of staff tested positive for coronavirus is 41 yesterday. i know that number is expected to grow. the number of infected staff almost equals the number of confirmed patients at mass general which is 43. there is 143 patients who have

been admitted as potential cases. are you able to pinpoint how the staff is becoming infected and how those infections are impacting treatments of all patients? >> we have all staffs on the front line, we are not sure of the staffs that are infected how it happens whether it is through contact of work or contact in the community. our hearts go out to the ones that's infected. it is not causing any significant shortages in the work force. in china the rate of infection was three times that of the general population so i think everybody needs to realize that healthcare workers are putting themselves at risk and need to do everything we possibly can to support them and making sure they have the equipment they need to stay as safe as possible. >> we have seen some cases for instance of healthcare workers like a 31 years old nurse in new york who contracted coronavirus and died from it.

are you seeing anything different in terms of how the healthcare community is dealing with this because of their increase exposure and how the healthcare community is exhibiting symptoms or degree of severi severity? t >> the pattern of illness has been seen elsewhere, the older people who are most vulnerable, people over the age of 85 have a higher risk and given the number of young people in our society and work force, you would expect to see some one getting sick. >> so about a week ago. you were talking about the possibility of masks and now your hospital is studying whether the n-95 masks can be sist

sterilized and used. >> first of all, i want to congratulate governor cuomo and baker trying to do everything in their power to get more supplies in their states. >> we need the president to aggressively working as possible and increase new production for industries that have never done this before. i mentioned 3-d printing worked in ital we have a team of people at mass general and across our health system looking at various possibilities, 3-d printing to make protective equipment and things like ozone or ultra violate light or radiation. we need to unleash the capacity of this country to make the most

of this crisis to save as many people as possible. president roosevelt demands during the second world war. >> so you mentioned there are young people who have 3-d printers in their basement. is there a place for them in all this? is there a place they can be included in this crowd sorted issues? >> this is rather recently. if we had a particular design that we can make that widely available as that design in fact works. that's what this group of entrepreneurs and scientists within our health system is working on aggressively and collaborating with people around the city of austin and around the country to try to see if these innovations in fact can make a difference in weeks ahead. >> well, it is fascinating.

it is so interesting to see how they are bringing all these great creativities in this. thank you dr. slavin. >> we'll take you inside a factory that's producing masks at a feverish pace. the general is building more ventilators in a sharp change in tone. we'll be live from the white house. doing everything possible to keep you connected. through the resilience of our network and people... we can keep learning, keep sharing, keep watching, and most of all, keep together. it's the job we've always done... it is the job we will always do. no, because on a sandwich,t no they ask you if you want cheese.

breaking news, the house just passed the $2 trillion stimulus bill, this is the largest aid package in history. this injects for individuals and businesses big and small. let's go to kaitlan collins at the white house. we know the president is expected to sign this soon. tell us what we are going to see. >> reporter: it is on its way over hereafter a little bit of drama on capitol hill after one republican wanted a recorded vote. the other member ended up over ruling him. they passed it to the

president's desk. something he's been eager to sign. he made clear of his displeasure of one republican who was causing some of the drama this morning. it is likely that the president will sign it as quickly as it gets over here. >> what is going on with this social distancing guidelines? has the white house settle on this? >> reporter: no, this is something they'll meet with the president. they have not settle what they're going to do. what you should be expecting is new guidance on tuesday. that's the 15th day after they issued the guidelines. the question is what it is going to look like. the primary option seems to be a tier system where they have certain areas starting to return to some what normal life. there are still a lot of questions about that and what the president advisers are saying to him. you are saying people like dr. fauci and the vice president say easter were not an aspirational date. >> it seems yesterday katelyn

that one of the few bright spots when it came to getting needed supplies was this deal between gm and ventilator makers but now that's a snag. tell us why. >> reporter: they have been close to making an announcement between the administration and this company and gm to make these ventilators. there were some concerns and held off. there was concerned over the timeline and how much it was going to cost. it was going to cost a lot and they were worried it is going to take too long to get the ventilators they need. they put it on hold. this morning the president is lashing out at gm saying they need to do more to make these ventilators and he may invoke the production act to mandate them. it is notable brianna, last night in an interview on fox news, the president was down playing the new york's governor for 30,000 ventilators, he does not say how someone would need that many ventilators of how

many these hospitals had before the pandemic broke out. we are standing by to see what's going mary happto happen with g. they're not used to making ventilators and factory where they're going to be making them. they want to be able to make these ventilators. it is complicated talks. these are complicated machine to make and of course they're going to take time and critics say the administration really should started to have this discussion months later. so far the president has said he believes they're going to be able to meet that demand though. it is certainly still an open question. >> yes. it is just so odd they put so much responsibility down the states and not believe governors say what they need, kaitlan collins. thank you very much. as new york governor cuomo prepares his state to the long hall, a new york city councilman is sharing his experience with symptoms of coronavirus.

doing much better. i am coming out of my fever and cough. i am still taking it easy. i am fortunate that my symptoms get better quickly and i didn't require medical care and all i had to do is stay home and rest. we have a hospital system now in new york city which is under enormous strain and nothose of who are not sick, the best thing we can do is stay home and stay out of the way. luckily most of us will get better on our own if we rest and hydrate. in my case, that amerppears to happen. >> coming out of new york, the brooke dale university center that's down inve ventilators. things are getting dire in new

the military family advisory network and shannon, you know, this is something that we've been talking a lot about recently, you and i, that people might not think of military families when they think about hunger in the united states. i'm part of the military family and the issue that's going on, because the reality is there's a lot of families struggling to put food on the table and becoming even harder in the age of coronavirus. tell us more on why that is and what's going on with military families on this issue. >> we have really been surprised with what our data has told us around military families and food insecurity. we started hearing about this issue anecdotally through our network and decided we needed to take a closer look at what's happening and we found one in eight of our survey respondents actively serving are food insecure. this is a problem widespread across our country right now. when you think about kids out of school, for the families whose children on free and reduced price school meals, that's additional 10 meals a day they
