Breaking: “The President’s Coronavirus Guidelines for America: 15 Days to Slow the Spread”. Here is the handout the Whitehouse shared before the briefing to the press. President instructing Americans to avoid social gatherings of more than 10 people for the next 15 days to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. 1. Asking all Americans to work from home 2. Restrict gatherings to <10 people 3. Avoid discretionary travel 4. Avoid eating/drinking in public bars, restaurants, breweries. Noteworthy: *** In states with evidence of community transmission, bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms and other indoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed. This would apply to Oregon. Expect Oregon Gov to respond accordingly later today. More to come. Source of handout: Geoff Bennett @GeoffRBennett White House Correspondent@NBCNews
