Coronavirus has killed 20,460 people in the United States, just higher than number of deaths in Italy. Since New York's first recorded death on March 14, more than 6,500 of its people have died of COVID-19 and more victims have died in New York than in any country aside France, Spain and Italy.

Infectious diseases expert Dr. Anthony Fauci said Friday morning (April 10) that in about a week an antibody test would become available to show who has already been infected with the novel coronavirus, The  New York Times reported.

As the virus’s spread started to increase in the United States, a team at the University of Washington in Seattle used the daily death rates in a model to speculate the number of beds and ventilators that US hospitals would need. “Our modeling approach is based off the deaths — that is the core part that tells us about the epidemic,” says Theo Vos, an epidemiologist at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the university. 

IHME’s projections were reportedly among those used by US President Donald Trump’s administration in late March.
