## abstract
## 1 Americans were advised to avoid nonessential travel and gatherings of more than 10 people until at least April 30. Deaths nationwide approached 2,500, with more than 1,000 in New York. Spain asked residents to go into “hibernation” as the death toll climbed.
## 2 Live updates on stock market and business news during the coronavirus outbreak.
## 3 The state hit a grim milestone as confirmed virus cases approached 60,000.
## 4 Officials in Washington State worry that their gains are precarious, but they see evidence that containment strategies have lowered the rate of virus transmission.
## 5 After SARS, Chinese health officials built an infectious disease reporting system to evade political meddling. But when the coronavirus emerged, so did fears of upsetting Beijing.
## 6 The pandemic has begun to sweep through New York City’s medical ranks, and anxiety is growing among normally dispassionate medical professionals.
