March 29, 2020 Coronavirus deaths in the United States doubled in two days: according to data from Johns Hopkins University, there are 2,010, the confirmed cases 121,117. Most cases of the infection have been recorded in New York. U.S. President Donald Trump first proposed and then withdrew the idea of ​​quarantining the states of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

The toughest reaction was from New York governor Andrew Cuomo. A quarantine would be a "federal declaration of war on states," said Cuomo, calling his imposition "probably non-legal". A quarantine - he warned - would have serious repercussions on the financial markets and on the economy that Trump wants to reopen for Easter. Cuomo then also lashed out against the state of Rhode Island, north of New York, where the police and national guard are currently identifying the New Yorkers who have found refuge there.

Trump tweeted shortly after arguing that "a quarantine will not be necessary" for New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, but opts for 'travel advisory' to dissuade travel and travel in and from the three states, without however closing their borders. These are in fact limitations with which the American president aims to contain the spread of coronavirus in the United States.

The coronavirus emergency is also rampant in the rest of the United States, with new outbreaks in Michigan and Illinois, where a child less than one year old died. In Michigan, reality is particularly difficult in Detroit, where Mayor Mike Duggan has launched a new appeal to stay at home and where the auto show has been canceled: the center destined to host the event will be transformed into a field hospital. at least for six months.
