On March 25 local time, the total number of confirmed cases of New Crown in the Greater Washington area (Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia) exceeded 1,000. The Washington, D.C. government sent a text message to the crowd that night, urging residents to stay at home and notifying that the US capital will close all unnecessary businesses from April 10 until April 24.
Affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Washington's annual "Cherry Blossom Festival" had to end early. In order to avoid the spread of the epidemic caused by the dense cherry-watching crowd, Washington Mayor Bowser ordered the closure of all roads in the tide lake area, a popular cherry-watching spot in Washington.
On March 25 local time, reporters saw on the streets of Washington that, except for a few people who went for a walk and exercise, the bustling National Square area was deserted in the past. The reflection pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial was evacuated due to maintenance and became an empty lot.
