Trump: 'We have to get back to work'

President Donald Trump says his administration is preparing new coronavirus guidelines that will characterize U.S. counties as high-risk, medium-risk or low-risk, and that people have to get back to work.

The remarks come as the United States surpassed China and Italy as the country with the most coronavirus cases, according to a Reuters tally.

At least 1,178 people in the United States have died from COVID-19, which has proven especially dangerous to the elderly and people with underlying chronic health conditions, according to a running tally based on reports from state and local public health authorities.
