as more and more people keep getting sick, they're really starting to get scared. this morning, the numbers of the coronavirus soaring above 800. now topping the sars outbreak in 2002. the mad scramble is on for face masks and supplies. passengers onboard the diamond princess cruise ship are on day five of a 14-day quarantine after six new cases of coronavirus were reported just today alone. making it 70 in total. at least 12 of them americans. this couple is spending their honeymoon in quarantine. >> i would say if we weren't together, we probably would have gone crazy. >> just imagine like a knot in your stomach all day every day. >> how is your mental health? how is your head doing? >> our hearts are beating so fast. when we take our temperature, we're like panicking. it's like 98.6, good. >> reporter: that fear is ripping through asia with more than 37,000 infected worldwide, mostly in mainland china. lines for masks wrap around the

>> maggie, travel is restricted. no exceptions even for healthy people coming from these affected areas like china? >> eva, that's a good point. we're starting to see these real impacts of these travel restrictions. an award-winning actress zhao shuzhen wasn't able to accept her spirit award for best supporting actress, she was stuck in china and not able to travel to the u.s. because of these travel restrictions. >> maggie rulli for us there, thank you. whit? now, to politics and the count down to the next contest, the nation's first presidential primary. democrats blitzing new hampshire this weekend, ahead of tuesday's voting. abc's rachel scott joining us from manchester, and rachel, the candidates are really sharpening their attacks. >> reporter: that's right, whit, good morning. this is a fight for momentum in a debate over which candidate is best fit to take on president trump. former vice president joe biden is on the attack and the target is mayor pete buttigieg. >> elizabeth warren!

>> reporter: two days out of the new hampshire primary, joe biden sharpening his attacks on rising mayor, pete buttigieg. >> this guy isn't a barack obama. barack obama was a united states senator in a really large state. >> reporter: in this blistering new ad, the former vp ripping into buttigieg's experience as a small-town mayor. >> joe biden helped save the automobile industry. that revitalized the economy of the midwest. pete buttigieg revitalized the sidewalks of downtown south bend by laying out decorative brick. >> reporter: and calling out buttigieg's lack of support among african-american voters. >> here's what he never mentions, the only democrats to win the presidency is where we have overwhelming support from the african-american community. and don't take it for granted. >> reporter: buttigieg said it's time for the next generation to step in. >> we're tired of being reduced to a punch line by washington politicians. who want to see themselves and their stories in the future. >> reporter: out on the trail, brushing off concerns about his

resume. >> some folks are out there saying, what business does a mayor of a south bend have running for the presidency? you don't have an office in washington. that's exactly the point. >> reporter: senator bernie sanders at top of the polls here in new hampshire, rallying volunteers and feeling confident. >> if you read these articles, the establishment is beginning to get nervous. >> reporter: and senator bernie sanders will be hoping to use his backyard advantage. the vermont senator won this state in the 2016 democratic primary, but mayor pete buttigieg is on the rise and right behind him in the polls. dan? >> rachel scott on the ground in new hampshire. rachel, thank you. for more on all of this, let's bring in our chief white house correspondent jon karl. good morning to you. mayor pete isn't the only attack that joe biden is attacking. i want to play you a moment from an interview that joe biden gave our george stephanopoulos recently in which biden goes after bernie sanders. >> so you think flat-out

democrats can't defeat trump if they have to defend socialism? >> i think it's going to be incredibly more difficult. i'm not going to say -- look, if i don't get the nomination and bernie gets it, i'm going to work like hell for him. but i tell you what, it's a bigger uphill climb. running as a senator, on a ticket that calls itself a democratic socialist ticket. >> okay, that attack is slightly less hard than the ones he's been leveling against buttigieg. but these kind of attacks are generally off-brand for biden. he's long cautioned against democratic infighting. so, is there a possibility that this new approach is going to backfire for him? >> oh, absolutely. and they are off brand. biden got into this race as the front-runner who said he wasn't going to go after his fellow democrats. all of his fire was aimed directly at donald trump. now he finds himself trailing and trailing badly. his campaign calculated that he simply has no choice and they're probably right. that doesn't mean it's going to work.

>> what are stakes for biden if he delivers another fourth place or third place showing in new hampshire after the fourth place in iowa? >> reporter: well, on one hand he still looks strong in south carolina, he still leads many of the national polls. but, dan, this is not his only problem. fourth place in iowa, a bad finish here, he's also running out of money. even before this, he was fourth place in fund-raising, less money in the bank. fourth place finish here or worse in new hampshire might not be a knock-out, but it would be close. >> crunch time for joe biden. let me loop back on biden's attacks on mayor pete. duj vo do you think voters care right now about experience? or in today's political marketplace, is it more about

feelings and emotions that a candidate evokes? >> reporter: well, my sense is they do care about experience and they also care about finding a candidate who they believe understands them, cares about them. but, look, democrats in 2020 care about beating donald trump above all things, electability. it's hard to say you're the most electable when you're coming in fourth place. >> jon karl, always appreciate your analysis. thank you very much. >> tune in later this morning to "this week" when our chief anchor george stephanopoulos goes on one one with democratic presidential candidates joe biden, pete buttigieg and elizabeth warren. and the powerhouse roundtable. all coming up on "this week" later this morning. and a reminder, we still have continuing coverage leading up to the new hampshire primary right here on abc news and 24/7 on abc news live, our streaming channel, available right now, breaking news and analysis around the clock. eva, over to you. now to some breaking news overnight. at least two u.s. service members killed in afghanistan in a shoot-out with soldiers involved in joint military operations. abc's david wright joins us from washington with more. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, eva. this was a shoot-out between afghan and american forces in
