let's get right to the latest developments in the coronavirus pandemic. overnight, an abrupt reversal from president trump who briefly floated the idea of imposing a quarantine on new york, new jersey and connecticut. >> that notion was met with a swift pushback from the governors of those states after which the president said he would instead issue a travel advisory. also overnight, a significant jump in the numbers here in new york city where we now have more than 30,000 cases and almost 700 deaths. nationally, we're at more than 120,000 cases, and more than 2,000 deaths. we have team coverage this morning and we start with abc's stephanie ramos right here in times square. stephanie, good morning to you. >> reporter: dan, good morning. the governors of new york, new jersey and connecticut reacting strongly against the president's idea to quarantine the region, calling it an illegal lockdown. the cdc has now put in place travel warnings instead as covid-19 cases in new york go up. this morning, new york city alone now has more than 30,000 confirmed cases of the

coronavirus. and more than 200 deaths in just the last 24 hours. president trump tweeting overnight that a federally enforced quarantine of the region will not be necessary, and is instead having the cdc issue a strong travel advisory, urging new york area residents to not travel domestically for at least 14 days. the decision coming hours after new york's governor hit back at a quarantine proposal floated by the president, raising fears that the government would shut down major parts of the northeast. >> if you start walling off areas all across the country, it would be totally bizarre, counterproductive, anti-american, anti-social. >> reporter: trump has said governors from states less affect bid the virus asked him to look into a quarantine for the tristate area. >> i don't believe it would be legal. i believe it would be illegal to say you cannot leave the state

of new york. >> reporter: some states implementing stricter measures to prevent the spread of covid-19. florida, south carolina, maryland, texas, and rhode island ordering visitors from new york to self-quarantine for 14 days. the sunshine state even setting up checkpoints on i-95 looking for new yorkers. in rhode island, the national guard scouring neighborhoods, looking for cars with new york plates. >> folks from new york present a different kind of danger to the people of rhode island. i know this is unusual. i know it's extreme, and i know some people don't agree with it. >> reporter: governor cuomo threatening to sue rhode island if they don't scale back the policy of tracking residents from the empire state. new york, the epicenter of the crisis is still in need of medical supplies. in the midst of traveling warnings and social distancing, the president traveling to

virginia to send off the u.s. navy hospital ship as it sails to new york city. but outside of new york, the pandemic hitting another grim milestone, claiming its youngest life yet in illinois. >> there has never before been a death associated with covid-19 in an infant. if you haven't been paying attention, maybe this is your wakeup call. >> reporter: illinois preparing to become one of the nation's next hot spots. the governor there fearing they won't be able to shore up supplies while competing against other states, and the government for orders. >> for those at the bottom of the list may not see ventilators until, you know, potentially months after they peak in terms of their covid patients in their hospitals. >> reporter: and a dire warning in louisiana -- covid-19 cases spreading fast after mardi gras, 3,000 people infected. hospitals, full. the mayor of new orleans said she was not encouraged to cancel the festivities. instead, administration officials publicly stated the

virus was being contained. >> we were hearing from the federal government that the virus was contained. >> reporter: a louisiana senator hoping one of the navy's floating ships can be sent there, too. in california trails and beaches closed. law enforcement taking to the sky to enforce restrictions. >> if you do not leave you will be arrested for trespassing. >> reporter: governor newsom said the golden state has received more ventilators from the national stockpile but 170 of them are broken. telling our matt gutman they'll be up and running soon. >> they may not be working, but we're fixing them. so the fact is we have the asset. we have the mindset, and we're going to solve the problem in 72 hours. >> reporter: california's governor has also touted that the state has administered 90,000 covid-19 tests, but they have only received tests for

about 30,000. the governor says people are waiting seven to ten days for those results and that's a sign of a possible surge in cases to come. whit? >> yeah, the timing of those results continues to be an issue. stephanie ramos for us, thank you. in the meantime, many states are projecting the peak of this pandemic is still weeks away leaving president trump with some big decisions to make over the country's next steps to slow the spread. abc's rachel scott joins us from the white house with more. rachel, good morning. >> reporter: whit, good morning. in the next 24 hours the white house will be approaching the end of its 15-day initiative to slow the spread of the coronavirus. americans to practice social distancing, to work from home when possible, and now the president will have to decide whether or not he wants to loosen or tighten those guidelines. the president will be discussing how to move forward with his coronavirus task force team, but he's made clear he would like to see parts of the country that are not badly affected getting back to normal by easter. now vice president mike pence has said that goal is aspirational. but public health officials have warned against that. they say moving too quickly

would only cost more lives. more than 800,000 physicians from across the country sent a letter to the white house with the plea to keep that social distancing in place. now pence said that they're reviewing the data by county and will be giving guidance to different regions of the country in coming days. dan. >> rachel, thank you. for more on all of this, let's bring in martha raddatz who's also in d.c., where she'll be hosting "this week" later this morning. martha, good morning to you. so on this question of locking down versus opening up the economy, do we have a sense of where the president's head is at right now? first, he said he wants to reopen the country by easter. overnight, floating the idea of a quarantine on the new york area. what's the direction here? >> well, i think, dan, you hit the nail on the head when you said floated. i think in the last couple of days and all this week you've seen president trump floating these ideas. would it work to open things up by easter? would it work to have a complete

lockdown in new york city and connecticut and new jersey, and i think he's clearly getting pushback on this. he clearly got pushback from andrew cuomo about basically locking down all of new york city. the president now says he's consulted with these governors, and there will be a travel advisory. so i think he is getting that feedback. he's also getting feedback from cdc officials and scientists about whether this is really feasible, but i think ultimately, he does want to loosen some sort of restriction on parts of the country where it's not hitting hard. certainly in new york and in california and louisiana and places like that right now, they are overwhelmed in so many ways, but in the middle of the country, they are -- they are not feeling it as much, but the problem is, dan, they weren't feeling it very hard a month and a half ago in these cities that are now in very, very bad shape. that's a really hard decision. >> it comes on quick.

let's talk politics here for a second. the president's poll numbers have been surging during the crisis. overnight, some new numbers from an abc news/"washington post," while joe biden has a slim lead against the incumbent. there's a huge enthusiasm gap. only 24% enthusiastic support for biden. the president's at 53%. how does biden cut through this national crisis? >> i think it's very, very difficult. i think the enthusiasm gap for the election itself is not very large. joe biden has to walk that line of not being too critical of president trump in a time of crisis in the country but also trying to let people know he thinks he could do a better job but it's very tricky and i think this will play out over many, many months. the election isn't until november. >> and it's taking place under extraordinary circumstances, this campaign. martha, thank you very much. i want to remind everybody, martha has a big show this morning. she's going to interview the

governors of new jersey and louisiana, both hit hard by the coronavirus. she'll also go one-on-one with the president's chief economic adviser larry kudlow. that's later this morning on abc. and while i have you, in this busy, unprecedently busy news era, don't forget to tune into our new streaming service, abc newslive. joining us to answer more questions about covid-19 from newton, massachusetts, is dr. todd ellerin, an infectious diseases physician. thank you so much for joining us. let's get right to it. there was talk of a federal quarantine in the new york metro area but there's also been talk about getting things back up and running by easter. where's the balance? >> remember, i think that message is the same -- social distancing is key. staying at home is very important. so, you know, whether we call it quarantine or not some of that

is semantics. those are the key messages. as far as opening the country right now or opening up new york, we are not there yet. remember in two weeks we're going to have easter. people who are infected right now may be displaying their symptoms then. so before we start to give a firm date of when we're going to start to open, we have to see how many infections there are, what does the epidemic curve look like? more important than the specific date. >> we have now seen the first infant to die of covid-19. what does this tell us and should parents be concerned? >> yes, so, neonats are a vulnerable group. it's not the same as saying children where we know children tolerate this virus much better. we have to do the best to protect this vulnerable population. the way we do that is to protect mom and her partner from developing the infection. again, social distancing. we keep coming back to that, hand hygiene, staying away from mom if she's pregnant if you are sick.th veryimportant.

the other thing is remember, during labor if mom is infected, we have to follow the protocols, okay? the personal protective equipment for mom of the baby as well as her partner. this is evolving and it's very important, but this is a vulnerable group, so we have to be careful. >> dr. todd ellerin, thank you so much for that insight. whit. eva, turning now to the medical workers and hospitals filling with patients trying to stretch their resources. some now taking to the streets pleading for help. abc's trevor ault is outside the new temporary hospital at the javits convention center here in new york. trevor, good morning to you. >> reporter: well, whit, good morning. one survey says 90% of mayors nationwide say they don't have enough masks or tests and those shortages are putting the strain directly on american healthcare workers who are already being pushed to the limit as they try to tackle this pandemic head-on.

this morning, as the count of coronavirus cases climb higher, nurses outside hospitals, demanding access to more personal protective equipment. in new york,he father of the nurse desperate for his daughter's safety. >> have you asked your daughter not to keep going to work? >> i have. >> and what does she say? >> she says she has to. she loves her job. >> reporter: but for some amid growing shortages of masks, gloves and more, the risk has become too much. one nurse we spoke with named ashley saying she didn't feel properly protected by her hospital, and despite loving the work, decided to quit. >> the current hospital that i was working at kept taking ppe away from us and changing the guidelines, and it was scaring us. i felt that it was unsafe work conditions. so that's why i left. >> reporter: other nurses say guidelines from the cdc ve procedures for safety eq

that would have been required before the crisis. meredith johnson, a critical care nurse in south carolina, says she feels unprotected. >> we shouldn't be scared. this is our job. i did sign up for this, but i didn't sign up to do it without the right equipment. i didn't ever expect to be in a position where i would be sent to work and literally risking my life. >> reporter: the risk of those on the front lines contracting the virus themselves has grown so great, many like arkansas dr. jared burks have moved out of their homes to protect their families. dr. burks captured in this viral photo getting as close as he can to his 1-year-old son. >> it feels kind of crazy to be married to a doctor right now. there's a lot of uncertainty and so while i'm proud of him and very, very thankful he does what he does, there's this kind of fear of what might come. >> and this morning, we do have a pretty devastating update from that family in that viral photo, as if they weren't going through enough. the wife alyssa burks says yesterday, they were in the path of an arkansas tornado. while the family is okay and they're safe, their house was destroyed. dan?

>> i'm really glad they're okay, but that's terrible news. trevor, thank you very much. that home was destroyed by one of at least 17 reported tornadoes in the central u.s. rob is right here, tracking all of this. good morning, sir. good morning, dan. it was a rough 24 hours from over 190 damaging storm reports including this tornado that ripped through jonesboro, with debris flying through the air, around 5:00 p.m., terrifying time for the people of northeast arkansas. >> reporter: severe storms across the central u.s. producing this destructive tornado. jonesboro, arkansas taking a direct hit. terrified workers inside this cell phone and computer shop watch in fear as the twister causes transformers to explode and tosses debris into the air. >> oh, my gosh! >> a tornado on the ground. a big tornado. >> oh, my gosh! >> reporter: watch, as this traffic camera captures the tornado moving just north.

tornado sirens blaring as the tr zone. the tornado leaving little behind but rubble in its path. crushing cars and ripping businesses to pieces. fortunately, many had been closed because of the covid-19 outbreak. >> i hate to say this, with the coronavirus, not as many people in that building and it could have been much worse. >> reporter: the tornado blamed for at least six injuries, luckily no deaths. guy riggins capturing the scene on video. the twister roaring by his apartment. >> they say it has a unique sound, like a freight train. but my experience, it was much louder. definitely nothing like i have ever heard. >> watching this play out on the radar and on television yesterday was terrifying for myself. the point of the covid actually being a benefit here, had this happened any other time, there likely would have been fatalities. this storm is not over. the squall line cutting through tennessee and parts of alabama. flash flooding across parts of

ohio, cleveland, i-90 problems there. with snow still falling across parts of minnesota we have wind alerts. this is going to be a real big windmaker. if you are not getting severe weather, you'll see winds 40 miles per hour to 50 miles per hour. possibly some strong thunderstorms in pennsylvania and the mid-atlantic as this thing eventually pushes out to sea tomorrow. in replace of that, the next item up for bid, some severe weather and likely heavy rain that got hit by the tornado on monday, and then the severe weather threat goes tuesday across parts of the florida scattered showers, these two. good morning to you. some showers, some heavier downpours then they could linger through the early afternoon hours. otherwise partly cloudy for some of you today, and then more sunshine to start the work week, although north bay will hold on to a chance of showers into your monday morning. level one system later on today, 60 in oakland as well as san jose. mid-50s at the coast. so the rain comes down,

scattered about throughout the morning hours and turning partly cloudy and milder the rest of the week. weather s en qu 're getting into severe weather season. tornadoes in april, may and june. >> on top of everything else. >> the idea of social distancing when you're dealing with a tragedy is pretty difficult. >> but as you said, the social distancing could be useful in that people are inside. >> i think yesterday it did help. >> thank you, rob. let's go over to janai. she's been doing the right thing and staying home given that she is pregnant, and she has a story this morning about some police officers who like so many people these days are going above and beyond the call of duty. janai, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, guys. good morning. yeah, we're trying to find the silver linings, those happy stories to bring a smile to your face, and this one comes from the perry township police department in dublin, ohio where they're making sure their eld elderly residents don't have to feel alone while they're self-quarantining and social

distancing. the police department has set up a program where residents can sign up for a daily wellness check so the columbus dispatch shared these pictures as this police officer helped this resident by hauling her garbage can back from the curb and was then greeted by that beaming smile at the door. >> they have been very happy to see us. one lady especially, just yesterday, when i stopped and checked on her, just said she had been waiting for us to stop by to check on her. i think she was happy to have somebody to talk to other than just playing piano as she was doing when i got there. >> and along with the officers, the department's three chaplains have also enlisted volunteers to make house calls. so important to remember to check on people, you know, many of us are very fortunate in being able to socially distance

and be at home with our families. there are some people who are at home alone. you want to make sure they're doing okay too. >> dan, you talked about this before, loneliness being a real issue especially this time. people are trapped inside their homes. >> the problems that it creates psychologically trickle down to the rest of the body, and it is a very dangerous condition to be lonely. >> check in.nenot time. >> safely chdistan >> bthwa janai, we would love it if you lit that fire behind you. maybe we could just turn this into a fireside chat on the weekends now. >> i'm going to. you know what? that's what i'll do for "pop news" today, whit. >> warm it up a little bit this morning. >> making special requests. >> there you go. >> janai, you don't have to take his interior design tips just so you know. >> thank you, but i appreciate it. maybe i should. i can make this look real saucy. >> there you go. sauce it up. >> thanks, janai. >> we'll see you in a little bit. while they're testing in new york, a possible treatment for coronavirus using blood plasma from survivors. also, narrow escape for an

dinnertime has changed. our quality hasn't. reynolds wrap: foil made in the usa since 1947. new yorkers were back out on their balconies and looking out their windows making noise in what has become a nightly show of support for healthcare workers who have been working around the clock during the coronavirus. so many people all very grateful for those medical workers. >> i have seen a lot driving by work in the upper west side there, at first i thought there was a party going on, i'm like, what's up with the social distancing? then you looked out the windows and balconies, pretty amazing. we have top headlines we're following at the moment. first, happening at the moment, an abrupt reversal from president trump who recently floated the idea of imposing a quarantine on new york, new jersey and connecticut, that notion was met with a swift pushback from the governors of those states. after which the president said he would instead issue a travel

advisory. the cdc urging residents in the tristate area not to travel domestically for 14 days. this year's detroit auto show has been canceled. they reported that the auto show will be turned into a field hospital to treat patients with covid-19 for at least the next six months. and something to brighten your day, a british man wasn't going to let coronavirus restrictions keep him his dream from completing a marathon. he ran 1,066 laps around his backyard. that's the equivalent distance of a full marathon. the whole run was live-streamed on facebook. could you imagine more than a 1,000 laps in your backyard? >> not quite the same view. >> no, no. do you switch way -- which way you go in the circle, do you go the other way every now and then? >> like that scene from "european vacation."

par parliament, big ben. that's really cool. congratulations to him. we'll start half-hour, the cutting-edge research that could possibly, possibly lead to a treatment for covid-19. the answer may lie with patients who were strong enough to fight off the virus. abc's zachary kiesch's on the story. >> reporter: dan, good morning to you. it's an experimental treatment that's getting a lot of attention. the hope is that the plasma who have had and recovered from the virus can then be used to help someone else. it could take time. but a growing number of hospitals around the country like this team at mount sinai hospital in new york city are working on it. experts say antibody treatments could help patients hospitalized by the coronavirus recover until effective treatments are available. abc's diane sawyer spoke with dr. david rich, president of mount sinai. >> am i right that the antibodies of a recovering person can actually save the

life of someone who's critically ill? >> if you give the plasma that contains the antibodies it may help the patient overcome the disease. our plan is to infuse this into patients with moderate to severe illness. who are in our hospital. >> reporter: this man 31-year-old lawyer who recovered from the virus just got word he could help someone else. >> if i have, you know, a resistance to it, that can then be help to someone who is eld elderly or sick, i would feel honored to do that in any way i can. >> reporter: superdonors who may have enough levels of antibodies and could end up helping more than one patient. the team at mount sinai sent abc news this video. in these small wells, antibodies are reacting. the more the intense yellow color, the more antibodies from the donor. we asked the doctor if there are any risks involved. >> that's going to be always a concern for us, but we believe based upon the history of this therapy that it is the right and

ethical and moral thing to do in the face of a growing crisis. >> reporter: and there are people willing to help. >> i hope locally that once i'm recovered, or my quarantine is over, that i can go and donate blood and hopefully the antibodies that i have grown will be helpful to those who are a lot sicker. >> reporter: outside of new york, doctors hopeful that potential plasma treatments could help. this woman's husband is at the icu at cooper hospital. doctors say he could be a candidate for plasma therapy. she's hopeful those who qualify to donate will step forward. >> if you meet the criteria to be a donor, please go and donate. that is really extremely important. >> reporter: now outcomes are still not known, but tests like their being conducted by scientists across the country. national expert dr. fauci has mentioned these antibody treatments could be an important part of this fight. now in terms of volunteers, thousands have raised their hands, but there is some pretty strict criteria.

you need to have a documented positive test and be 21 days past those initial symptoms. guys? >> amazing to see people step stepping up here and fingers crossed this leads to an effective treatment. zachary, we really appreciate it. let's check the weather yet again as we mentioned at top of the show, some severe weather overnight. rob, what's going on? >> we got flooding issues across cleveland. we're getting word now into metro cleveland, the cuyahoga river approaching major flood stage. and the rain is still coming down there. on the cold side of this system, we have seen snow in minnesota. this is video out of saint cloud. obviously travel trouble there. some snow across parts of california. people heading for the hills in an effort to social distance i suppose, but here's the next system across the northwest, a weaker one with some snow in the hills. this next one, a stronger one, it comes in tomorrow, and through tuesday, that drops into san francisco. could see 2 to 3 inches of rainfall with this, and even two feet of snow in the cascades. more than that, almost as much as that across parts
