First US death, which caused this press conference on a Saturday.. 40+ million masks available.. Hope it will not be a major circumstance. Don't incite panic. Travel ban for China keeps threat low. Now banning travel from Iran. Advisory level 4 do not travel to specific regions in Italy and South Korea. State Dept to work with It and SK to screen people. Task force working seamlessly with state and local govs. Working on supplemental funding bill. Additional medical supplies - 3M producing 35000 masks per month. Risk remains low. We said from the beginning that we would see more cases. Most cases will be mild. Some may need hospitalization. Lower the amount of travel to the worst affected regions. Dr, Fauci said, community transmission has started. Evolving situation, from within public health methods. 22 cases as of Feb 29. Hoax is on [Democrats] the way they refer to his team. Shouldn't change our routines, go on with normal life.
