Fewer people in the office. Were practicing, its called safe distancing. We used to sis this way. I like it. And we have a minimal staff here. Virtually all of cbs working from home. A lot of people working from home. Social distancing it is. Here we go. Welcome to cbs this morning as we wake up to a new normal and life is slowly grinding to a halt and americas governments from coast to coast order new restrictions in the fight against the coronavirus. Americans are buying all the food and supplies it can find getting ready to stay at home for a long time. Business, travel and even family relationships all disrupted by the outbreak. Cities from new york to los angeles are shutting down. Schools, restaurants and large gatherings to stop the spread. The number of reported cases of the virus in the u. S. Is now more than 3,700. But the actual total number could be higher. We expect to hear more from government officials at every level responding to the newest developments in this crisis. We begin our coverage of the new normal in america with mola lenghi at new yorks Grand Central terminal. What are you seeing . Good morning, tony. Grand Central Station is typically one of the busiest stations, transit hubs in the country. Of course, this is not a typical monday morning. This is supposed to be the morning rush, but as you can see, not so much this morning. Schools are closed. Businesses are following suit, and more and more people are working from home, which is why Grand Central doesnt exactly look like Grand Central. A not so familiar site on bourbon street. Latenight fun coming to a halt by new Orleans Police enforcing the citys new ban on large gatherings. But its large gatherings converging on supermarkets across the country causing shelves to go empty and even hourlong waits at the stores. No more baby wipes, no more toilet paper or water. Reporter President Trump urged calm after holding a call with major retail and grocery executi executives. You dont have to buy so much. Take it easy. Relax. Reporter services that millions of americans rely on are shutting down including restaurants, gyms and bars. Other states are following similar measures, including Washington State, massachusetts, ohio, illinois and new york. It is quite clear that this crisis is growing intensely. After days of mounting pressure, new york city mayor bill de blasio announced the nations largest Public School system would close for at least a month, possibly the rest of the school year, impacting more than a million children.

Americans should be prepared that theyre going to have to hunker down significantly more than we as a country are doing. Reporter more and more businesses continue to shutter. Ski resorts across the country are following the lead of the cruise ship industry and shutting down their operations. In las vegas, mgm announced the temporary shutdown of its hotels and casinos effective tomorrow. Anthony . Mola, thank you. An experimental Coronavirus Vaccine moves into human testing today. Its part of the push by scientists to find treatments and preventive vaccines. Dr. David agus joins us from los angeles. Good morning. I know a vaccine is at least a year away at this point. I want to get to the more immediate concern, which is, has been the lack of tests. Is the testing situation improving at all from what youve seen . The good is, there are more tests across the country. The tough part is, theres not an infrastructure to run those tests. Some of the reagents are in short supply. We are still testing a fraction of the people that need to be tested, and the tests many times can take three, four, five days until the results come back. Does that limit our understanding of what were dealing with at this point . With knowledge is power. And ride now we dont have that knowledge. So its very hard to do effective datadriven quarantines without the data of who is affected. If i tell you youre positive, youre going to stay home. We dont know what to do. What are the numbers in other countries tell bus about what w could face here. Does that give knus clue . Were scared. Were scared the numbers are going to skyrocket, that well have to put in stricter measures. Im proud of what america is doing. Were stepping up every single, you know, city is stepping up here. We may have to step up more. But its certainly an amazing week. Look at what weve done as a country. Doctor, at the beginning of this month, fewer than 100 cases. Now at 3,700. You look at our trajectory next to italy and iran, it seems frightenly similar. Are we on the path of, say italy. Its really hard to know. We have much better medical infrastructure than italy does. The drugs that are going to be able to treat this disease are in development and look very, very encouraging. So the hope is theres some really positive news there in the next week or two together with us expanding our medical infrastructure. Well not have what happened, what happened in italy. I think our leadership and infrastructure is going to do much better. What do you think were facing in the weeks ahead, david . What i think is somewhat stricter measures about trying to slow the progress of the disease. Thats the goal here. Theres no panic. Its slowing the disease. So that we can have our infrastructure in place. We have to protect our elderly. Below age 60, the death rate is almost zero. Above age 60, it starts to go up by decade. We as a country have to protect our elderly. Were all stepping up for people with medical issues and over the age of 60 to protect them. If you test positive, david, what is the recovery rate . Do we know . Well, that depends how old you are. The entry portal for the virus goes up by decade. If you test positive under the age of 60, the recovery rate is over 99 in countries like south korea. And it will be the same here. Every decade above 60, that goes up until its about 7 or 8 in the 80s. And so we have to protect people over the age of 60 and thats what were doing with these draconian measures going in across the country. Doctor, theres some things you want to spread at a time like this and that would be advice for what is effective treatment. When people walk into a doctors office, im curious, what is working . What are folks like yourself talking about and sharing with one another about how to get people back on their feet . Its a great question. Right now there is no National Database for what is working, how we all talk to each other in terms of treating this disease. That being said, there are some effective treatments we think will work. The Clinical Trials are ongoing but they look encouraging. And we as physicians are allowed to use the drugs off label. Were using drugs that block the virus from replicating. Were using drugs that temper down inflammation which is the main side effect of the virus to make survival significantly higher than its been seen before. Dr. David agus, thanks. Wall street opened the week with a huge drop after the latest action to try and protect the economy from the coronavirus. Trading was halted seconds after the opening bell after stocks fell close to 10 . That followed the federal reserves decision yesterday to drastically cut interest rates. Weijia jiang is at the white house where President Trump applauded the reduction. Whats led to the feds decision . Good morning. Chairman powell stopped short of using the word recession to describe whats ahead. But this surprise announcement is certainly a clear indication that the fed is concerned about how the coronavirus is going to impact the global economy. The fed cut its benchmark rate by a full percentage point to a range between 0 and 0. 25 and, starting today, the fed will start buying 500 billion in treasury securities and 200 billion in mortgagebacked securities in order to introduce money into the economy. Some economists express concern that by using the biggest tool in its arsenal at this point, it will not be able to significantly affect the economy down the line. Of course, Congress Also has a big role to play in dealing with the economic fallout of the virus. And today, the senate is expected to take up a house bill that was passed on saturday that would provide paid sick leave, help feeding families and boost medicaid funds. Gayle . Weijia, thank you. Many americans coming home from abroad waited in very long lines for several hours at major airports to have medical screenings. People, as you see, were packed together shoulder to shoulder, despite the cdcs call for social distancing. Kris van cleave is at Reagan National airport just outside washington, d. C. Kris, those lines were very jarring to see. The last thing you need at the airport these days. Whats being done to prevent these lines from forming again . Good morning, gayle. Youre exactly right. This is what americans are being told to avoid. The acting Homeland Security secretary says they are working to increase capacity and speed up the wait times. Take a look at some of this video. We know that very long lines and long wait times hit 3 of the 13 airports screening passengers returning from europe saturday night. This follows travel restrictions going into effect for most of europe. The uk and ireland are being added to the list. These social media pictures show a crowd at chicago ohare waiting for hours. The slowdown appeared to be a combination of staffing, the new Health Screenings and new forms passengers have to fill out. Yesterday a flyer returning from finland on a virtually empty flight described confusion getting back into the u. S. Our experience getting back home was one of everything going on time, although every time wed ask a question like whats it going to be like when we got back to the u. S. , no one could answer it. It was rapidly changing. We saw what was happening at ohare. Americans coming back from europe, china, iran, are being asked to selfquarantine once they get home for 14 days. President trump is telling americans, if they dont have to travel, not to. And that is causing airlines to start shedding capacity. At united, they said theyd cut 50 of their capacity by april. They are facing the possibility of losing at least a billion dollars. 1. 5 billion this month alone. Guys . Kris, theyve said its worse than 9 11. In europe, three of the countries hardest hit by the coronavirus have each recorded their highest single day death count. France, spain and italy, where the spike came despite a national lockdown. Over the weekend in italy, obituaries for victims spanned ten pages of a local newspaper in bergamo in the northern part of the country. Imtiaz tyab reports how they are fighting to contain the spread. Reporter europe continues to convulse from the coronavirus outbreak. Cases in spain are surging with reported infections over 8,000. This woman just lost her husband to the virus. She, too, is infected but was denied treatment from doctors for not being sick enough. Desperate to console their mother, her children risking exposure to themselves. Across the continent, more than 100 Million People are now on lockdown. Police are even using drones to enforce it. Germany is the latest to slam its borders shut, while in france, cafes and bistros are closed despite local elections going ahead. The British Government is now warning it, too, could ban public gatherings and also enforce months of isolation on the elderly. Its just scary. Reporter but its italy that continues to suffer the most. With a record oneday death toll of 368 people on sunday alone. Still, that didnt stop pope francis from walking the streets of an eerily empty rome to pray for the sick. Prayers which may have been heard as soons of hope slowly start to emerge elsewhere. Like in china where this all started. And in south korea, also with large outbreaks, the numbers of infected are at record lows. Inspiring some italians to take to their balconies this weekend to sing songs of solidarity. Including puccinis classic nessun dorma. He sings, i will win. Consider cbs this morning, imtiaz tyab, london. So beautiful. How about that for the human spirit. Goose bumps to hear that. Very nice. Beautiful thing. Back here in this country, the coronavirus and the federal governments response dominated the president ial debate. Former Vice President joe biden and senator Bernie Sanders stood at a noticeably safe distance from one another, about six feet, as they argued about why they would be the best person to lead the country in a crisis. Ed okeefe reports from washington. This is bigger than any one of us. Reporter in their first one on one debate, joe biden and Bernie Sanders said theyd respond to the coronavirus better than President Trump. Undermining the doctors and scientists trying to help the american people. Its unacceptable for him to be blabbering with unfactual information which is confusing the general public. Reporter but they disagreed about whether a governmentrun Health Care Plan should be part of the solution. You have a single payer system in italy. It doesnt work there. One of the reasons that we are unprepared and have been unprepared is we dont have a system. Weve got thousands of private insurance plans. That is not a system that is prepared to provide health care for all people. That has nothing to do when youre in a National Crisis. The National Crisis says were responding. Its all free. You dont have to pay for a thing. That has nothing to do with whether or not you have an insurance policy. Reporter both in their late 70s, the candidates were asked what theyre doing to stay healthy. I am very careful about the people im interacting with. Im using a lot of soap and Hand Sanitizers. I do not shake hands any longer. I do not engage we did the same thing, our staff is all working from home. We are not doing rallies any longer. Reporter on the topic of a Vice President ial pick, sanders said hed likely pick a woman and biden made a commitment. There are a number of women qualified to be president tomorrow. Id pick a woman to be my Vice President. Reporter ed okeefe. Made news. Very civilized conversation. No audience.

It is very quiet this morning as the coronavirus grips the city. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Im Anthony Mason with gayle king and tony dokoupil. Millions of americans are seeing dramatic changes in their daily life because of the outbreak. Thats right. At least 33 states have made the decision to shut down all Public Schools. That affects more than 32 million students. Thats a lot. Think about that for a second. The cdc is recommending that gatherings of 50 people or more should be canceled for at least the next two months to limit the spread. In los angeles and right here in new york city, two of the major cities across the country ordering all bars and restaurants to close or switch to takeout and delivery only. The coronavirus is affecting everyones life across the globe including us here at cbs news. Six cbs news employees were diagnosed with covid19, and one of them is cbs news Foreign Correspondent seth doane. There he is. Death is quarantined in his home in rome. First let me say its good to see you. Really good. I want to know, number one, how youre feeling. And what you were experiencing that made you think i need to get testing i need to get tested. Reporter thanks, gayle. I was starting to feel i coughed a little bit, just enough to worry the people i was with here. We were out working covering this story. I started to have a little bit of a cough that worried me. For most part, i feel okay. As we know, this is a deadly virus. It can be incredibly serious, major illness. So far ive been lucky. Ive had a chest pressure almost like you feel like youve done a big chest workout. Ive had a little bit of a cough. I had a relatively mild fever. Im had weird aches and pains in places im not used to. Honestly, i feel like ive had colds and flus worse than this. Weve never been totally out for the whole day in bed. Ive been up, able to talk with people. So for me, luckily, fortunately for me its been quite mild. As soon as i learned i had been exposed to people who had tested positive, we have been in lockdown here inside the house. As you know, italy has been locked down. People have been told they have to remain at home. Since i had had exposure to positive cases, i was absolutely not allowed to leave the house. I havent left to take out the trash. In fact, our neighbors just brought some groceries to us and left them on the front doorstep. We have taken from the moment i learned that i was exposed to positive cases, weve taken this quarantine seriously because you have to stop the spread. We saw the the video of you getting the actual test. Boy, that was hard to watch. It looks very uncomfortable. Is it as painful . Reporter its very uncomfortable. They really stick this swab up both sides of your nostrils. And then both sides of the back of your throat. You saw those were Italian Health authorities who came to our apartment here in italy. If youre feeling symptoms, you call a number. We also called our local doctor here in rome. For a while they didnt want to give me the test because they said you have mild symptoms, italians have been incredible. Theyve been checking two times a day. One called because i have a little bit of a fever now, he said now were going to stop checking two times a day. Were going to call three times a day to check your temperature. Theyve been responsive to stop any spread. They say we cant leave the house. Health authorities suit up in space suits, protective suits. Its quite alarming to have them come in your house. Theyve got to stay safe, as well. They administered the tests. We waited about 24 hours and got the test this weekend. The results this weekend. Weve heard some people who are under guarantee literally have under quarantine literally have to get a note to get groceries. Hoe has it affected your life there . Reporter a quarantine has stopped life in many ways in italy. If youve been exposed to positive cases, youre not allowed to leave the house. Certainly if you are positive, youre not able tore you can go medical needs, for Something Like going to the Grocery Store or the pharmacy, most everything is closed here. For instance, our neighbor who is safe and a friend down the street, cautiously go to the supermarket, everyones keeping their distance. There are very few people on the street. They carry this form with them in case theyre stopped by police. One thing i hadnt thought about until just this morning but i think is interesting is when you have this virus, you then call people that youve had contact with to say, look, i tested positive. Whats that call like . And how do people react . Reporter tony, its alpharettawful. This is not what i want to discuss on tv. This is not what i want to be known for. Im trying to be public and open because i think its vital that we stop the spread of this th g thing. It is vital that people inform people they had contact with. The psychological part for me has been worse than the physical part. Ive tried to call or email or contact everyone i had contact with. I was feeling great. I felt totally fine. Luckily, our amazing dr. Jon lapook has been checking and hopes i wasnt spreading at that point when i was feeling terrific. But really, its too early. We dont know. Ive taken it seriously to call everybody i had contact with, as difficult as its been, to say youve got to take this seriously. You have to quarantine. Now that you have it, do you just wait it out . Its not like youre taking medication, right . You wait for it to pass . Reporter no, theres no treatment, exactly. Theres waiting at home. They say, look, you have it, all you can do is stop the spread in your house. Im trying to keep a distance from my husband, im trying to sterilize as much as i can in the house. The idea is that it stops at my doorstep. Seth, it is great to see you. Its great to hear that youre doing okay at least for now. We hope things stay table and you weather through the quarantine.

She has no idea how she got infected. We were talking about seth do e doane, the tight innocence the chest and the process of calling people to let them know he tested positive. Its something cbs has been doing. Anybody they thought he might have had any contact with, the company has reached out to, as well as seth calling people. Theyve reached out to all of us. Weve got the check sheet to do. Its what corporations are doing part of the containment process from i to we here. Lisas story that we heard is an indication of how contagious the virus might be. Michael osterholm is the director for the center of infemme us to Disease Research and policy at the university of minnesota in minneapolis. Good morning. You know, there are a lot of people worried have i been exposed, have i not been exposed. To that question, how long does it take from exposure to the moment when they feel some sort of a symptom, and what do they do then . Well, first of all, most people likely will feel some symptoms even if theyre mild as you described. That occurs between four to five days after youve been exposed to the virus. Some people feel no symptoms, right, doctor . And can still actually spread this. Well, theres two different pieces to that. The first one is will i shed the virus or basically expose others before i get sick. And the data now are compelling that, yes, that does occur. A day or two at least before you have any symptoms at all. Youre infectious. During that time period, none of us would know it that were transmitting it or that were with spin infeomeone infected. Then the second question, are we sure people never have symptoms. Im sure it happens. It may be mild enough that they dont think theyve been at risk, a cough or itchy throat. In terms of exposure, doctor, theres people, social distancing. Theres also surfaces, plastic, cardboard, metal. Do we have any idea of how long the virus can live on those surfaces . Well, you know, again, were learning Mother Nature about th and extrapolating from what we know about influenza and the other coronaviruses. I think theres actually a growing body thats of information that says that some of what weve been sharing actually hasnt been correct. Number one is is this virus moves a lot further than six feet away from people. So that if im in a crowded room, i may very well be breathing in the air of someone whos infected, doesnt even know it. Now im infected. Second of all, the surface issues i think has been greatly overplayed. And that you know, for one reason, it makes us feel good to know that we can wash our hands. But i think weve taken it to the extreme. All the deep cleaning and all the video you see of people cleaning in the streets probably has very, very little to do with stopping transmission. Boy, doctor the virus can survive on a surface. But its not its not highly infectious at all. Doctor, the Mother Nature the more we hear the worse it sounds. Dr. Fauci said if people think were overreacting, thats a good thing. I see people saying are we taking things too far . What can you say to people to let them know youve got to take this very, very seriously. The procautions you take matter. Yeah. I might have a slide disagreement with my good friend tony. I dont think thats called overreaction. I think what we want to do is do what makes a difference, Straight Talk with people, tell them what makes a difference. And then when we dont know, say so. A good example is i dont have the data that supports that this is a problem in schoolchildren, them transmitting the virus to each other and bringing it home like with flu. Absolutely have that with flu. There are downsides to closing schools. Were losing up to 20 of the main Health Care Workers now because they have to stay home with kids. We want to do everything we can, but we know right now that surely its still going to keep spreading. Dr. Osterholm, thank you so imagine yourself in a new toyota. Yeah. Yeah.

Im tony dokoupil, tens of millions of students wont go to school for weeks. What their parents can do to make their time productive. Im Anthony Mason. The outbreak is forcing a new explosion in telecommuting how thats good and bad for americas work force. But first, heres todays eye opener at 8 00. Life is slowly grinding to a halt as governments from coast to coast order new restrictions in the fight against the coronavirus. This is not a typical monday morning. This is supposed to be the morning rush. As you can see behind me, not so much this morning. What do you think we are facing in the weeks ahead, david . What i think is stricter measures about trying to slow the progress of the disease. Thats the goal here. There is no panic. It is slowing the disease so that we can have our infrastructure in place. How long does it take from exposure to the moment when they feel some sort of a symptom . Most people likely will feel some symptoms eve if they are mild. That usually occurs four to five days after you have been exposed to the virus. Do you wait it out . It is not like you are taking medication. There is no treatment. You are waiting at home. They say look you have it. All you can do is stop the spread inside your home. Stay home. The terminator is heeding advice to quarantine during the coronavirus emergency. Arnold schwarzenegger sharing his isolation setup with his miniature horses, lulu and whiskey. Look at this picture here. This moderns eye opener is presented by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome back to cbs this morning on this morning unlike any morning i think in living memory here. Lot of changes. Including here. Yes. Right. It is called social distancing. I like it. I like the look of it. I like sitting around the table. We are also working with a minimal staff in the studio because most of cbs like much of the country is working at home. We saw vlad at home. We are going to get through it at cbs and you are going to get through it at home as well. Authorities across america are accelerating their response to this pandemic. Federal, state, and local officials are taking unprecedented steps to stop the spread of the sires that has affected more than 3700 people in the u. S. The actual total could be much higher. Public schools are closed in at least 33 states. Restaurants and bars are under new restrictions in some areas, and the cdc is recommending that events of 50 people or more should be postponed or canceled outright for eight weeks. In new orleans, Police Ordered the crowds to clear bourbon street and go home. Tourists were sent to their hotels. People are living in kind of fear right now. No milk, no eggs. If we get put on lockdown i want to make sure i have food. All of a sudden it doesnt feel stable. It is unnerving. It is unnerving. But we will get through it. While people settle at home we expect new information from government officials today. Americans returning from abroad had to stand close together for hours at 13 airports for Health Screenings. People who are coming home from europe and asia are being asked to self quarantine for 14 days. This is driving people to supermarkets and Big Box Stores where shop remembers finding empty shelves, long lines, and limits on purchases. But experts say do not worry. Mark strassmann is in a local atlanta business where the shelves are stocked and the lines are short. Mark. I am coming to your shop. Why is it like that there . Reporter heres the story. This is a market. They are out of bread, Hand Sanitizer and toilet paper. If you want the dairy sec over there, this is all they have left. Heres the deal. Some of these little guy grocers actually have more on the shelves than the big guys. Shelves picked to the bone at a walmart in Washington State. Over the counter medicines vanishing from a target in virginia. Long lines and bare shelves at this whole foods in new york city. Panic mode. People are terrified, unsure what to do, and i think i dont know there is no sign of it getting better. Reporter it is a scene being repeated at Brand Name Stores all over the country. Sunday, even the president weighed in. The stores are stocking up at a level thats beyond christmastime. There is no need for anybody in the country to hoard essential food supplies. There is no chance that they will not be able to fill. Reporter doug baker is with the Food Industry association. He says the industry is trying to adjust to all the shortages. There would be periodic shortages and might be times when consumers might not be able to get it for a couple of days. But supply is flowing, machines are running and the product will make its way back to the shelf. Reporter baker says now is not the time to panic but to think about others before you buy more than you absolutely need. Buy the items you believe you need to have in order to do that. But also remember your naebs and your families and your friend and coworkers are trying to do the same thing and if you purchase too much of that item, that Hand Sanitizer, the household cleaning solution then you actually take that away from somebody else and put them at risk for this virus. Reporter so this market is expecting a supply truck later today but they have no idea whats on it. It is hit or miss. What they dont have on the shelves today they may still not have on the shelves tomorrow. Gayle, get them while they last. What he said was helpful. Remember your neighbors. Toilet paper. We will all need it. We all use it. Please dont buy more than you really need. What are you doing about that mark strawsman . Everybody is out of toilet paper. I am leaving it to my wife, who is a better person than i am and she is only buying what this family needs. Good to see you. Joining us now, dr. Jerome adams, the u. S. Surgeon general. He is a member of the White House Coronavirus task force. Thank you for joining us. It is good to be here. I appreciate the egg segment you played. We want people to understand it is about preparation but not panic and that you cant build a toilet paper fortress thats going to keep coronavirus out. You are so right about that. But people are freaked out. They are panicked. It is not just the stores that are running low. We keep hearing stories about hospitals that may not be well equipped. What are you saying or what are you doing to make sure that the hospitals have everything they need. We have the National Strategic stockpile that has been around for years and that we are always keeping updated, keeping maintained so when states have specific shortages we can respond to those. But we are also looking on the demand side. And we are having conversations with the American Hospital association, American College of surgeons put out a statement this weekend telling people that, look, talk to your doctor if you have got an elective surgery planned. Now may not be the best time to have that elective procedure done because it uses up personal protective equipment and potentially brings in coronavirus cases into the hospital and it taxes Health Care Workers. We are trying to lower the demand while also increasing the supply of Critical Materials and resources. Doctor, the administration is putting out new guidance today. Can you give us any idea of where things might be headed . We are at a critical Inflection Point in this country. We have the same number of cases that italy had two weeks ago. We have got a choice to make. Do we want to follow the trajectory of a south korea where they had aggressive mitigation measures and everyone really leaned into this issue . Or do we want to follow the trajectory of italy where we are seeing a rapid increase in cases and more death . The cdc put out guidelines just this morning saying we should no longer have large gatherings of more than 50 people. We really are all in this together and we want people to think about social isolation, social distancing, so that we can make sure that coronavirus isnt being spread in our communities. Doctor, you bring up a great point. I mean is social distancing and social isolation as a recommendation enough . Or do we need to get ahead of the italy situation by federally mandating that bars, restaurants, and other leisure activities shut down until this passes . It is important to understand that a lot of that authority in the United States lies at the state and the local level. I know this as someone who used to work for both a local Health Diplomat and a state health department. Certainly true, but the federal government has a lot of leadership capability. If it said to, it might be done. Give cover. So federally should there be a mandate. Thats why the cdc put out the guidance, why the president declared an emergency last week and why you saw the tweet from me this weekend saying Hospital Systems should pull down their elective cases when appropriate, when they consider it appropriate. Doctor, do the hospitals have enough supplies . Some of them are saying they are concerned . Or are hospitals ready for this . Again, we are leaning into the stockpile. We are increasing purchases. We are working with Companies Like 3m to make sure we can make more masks available. And there will be issues that pop up across the country. Thats what the stockpile is for. What about ventilators . Do they have enough ventilators . As of right now, we have enough ventilators. When you look at different modelling projections, there are scenarios where we potentially wouldnt have enough ventilators. But the way that you make sure that you have enough ventilators is decrease the number of people who need them by leaning into the aggressive mitttation measures. Can we talk about the people on the frontlines. This morning an emergency room doctor in Washington State tested positive and is in Critical Condition. What happen is your message to the Health Care Workers on the front lines . I appreciate you asking that. We need to take care of the people who take care of the people. I feel lining this weekend at the press conference when we announced our new testing strategy that we made a turning point on testing. You will see that we prioritized among the groups to be tested, Health Care Workers. We have got to make sure they are safe and they feel safe. That they have the p. P. E. They need. We have got to make sure we are not unnecessarily exposing them to coronavirus cases with elective procedures that could be delayed. Ppe . Whats that . Personal protective equipment. Okay, all right. Gloves, gowns, masks the things we know keep people safe from coronavirus. All right, dr. Adams we appreciate you being here. Hope you come back soon. Coronavirus. Gov or state department of Health Website are great resources for people out there. Many americans are using the crisis to do good.

Youre looking at a shot of new york city this morning where there are very few cars on the street for in part of town. If you had a meeting today youd be able to get to it, but nobody has meetings because youre working from home. School is also shut all over the country. The School System here in new york city, the largest, is closed starting today. And in all 33 different states are closing Public Schools all to s stopp t the spreadd o of t coronavirus. At least 32. 5 affected. Meg oliver joins us from her house. Shes in montclair, new jersey, where her children are also home. There they are. The whole family. Meg, good morning. How are you handling this . How are parents coping . Reporter yeah, right. We should probably ask my husband. This is stressful, but this is the new normal across america. I have the kids logged in to their online classes. Over here, tommy, hes doing his math homework. We just bought these laptops a couple of days ago. We didnt have a choice really. A lot of students cannot afford that. Its a huge concern as more schools shut down. Its going to be very difficult for a lot of families. Reporter new york city mayor bill de blasio announced sunday that the citys Public Schools will be closed until at least april 20th, possibly even longer. The closures come as the cdc says closing for at least eight weeks may help mitigate the virus spread. Thats why i feel bad that i dont have any answers right now either. Reporter Olivia Austin is an eighth grade social studies teacher in newark, new jersey, where schools are closed throughout the state. The school offers type of security that they thrive off of. So just not having that sense of security i think is also an added stress. Reporter austin is concerned that her students could fall behind on their curriculum. One of the Biggest Challenges is that i work in the inner city school, and a lot of our students dont have access to laptops. Reporter another concern at the top of educators minds providing meals to students who rely on School Lunches as their primary source of nutrition. In virginia, the arlington Public School system started a grabandgo initiative where students will be able to pick up breakfast and lunch bags while schools remain out of session for the next four weeks. About 30 of our students in arlington anticipate the free and reduced meals program. I do think that there would be students who had nothing to eat tomorrow for breakfast. We need more than, you know, 12 to 24 hours to plan for the complete disruption of not just our lives but the lives of children. Reporter kristin little is a single mom with two kids who are expected to be at home for the next month at a minimum. My first reaction when i got the notification that they were going to shutter the schools for a month was instant overwhelming anxiety, and i broke into tears. Because youre just completely not mentally or physically prepared for Something Like that. Reporter now School Officials in new york city only have a few hours left to make sure that Emergency Responders and Health Care Workers have access to childcare. Gayle .

Vlad duthiers joins us once again from his house to let us know how others are helping out. I love these kind of stories. It shows humanity, humanity is alive and well. I like it. Reporter kindness, people doing kindness to others, thats what its all about in times of uncertainty like this. And of course as the coronavirus has created a new uncertainty around peoples health, their jobs, even their next people e meal, people everywhere are taking actions both big and small to help as many as they can. Including steph curry. In the bay area. He and his wife ayesha are partnering with the food bank in oakland. Their goal is to raise funds for at least one million meals for Oaklands School district students now that schools have closed. This is such a great story. And its so cool to see steph and his wife doing this. Weve seen stories like this happening all across the country. Netflix executive wade davis, i saw a tweet over the weekend that he essentially launched out there asking folks who were in need to hit him up on his d. M. S and he would provide them with cash from his venmo account until he reached his limit. I spoke to him last night. Listen to what he had to tell me i was thinking about how many of the folks who are the most marginalized, who will be impacted, right. The folks who are cashiers, who are waiters, right, like who do the handtohand style jobs. I was thinking that a lot of them probably dont have the same types of benefits as someone like myself does. So if i can give 50, 100, you know, i would do as much as i can as often as i could. Reporter you know, i mean, its easy for us to be at home i guess in some levels because we have the jobs that we have. And for other people who have the privilege to be able to work from home, its wonderful. The service industry, medical professionals, teachers, those are the folks he was talking about.

Welcome back to cbs this morning. Requests its time to bring you some of the stories that are talk of the table this morning. Thats where we each bring you a story wed like to share with each other and with all of you at home. Yes. Here we are at the extra wide social distant table. Yeah. And anthony, youre going first. I am. This story got a bit of attention over the weekend, but i just love it. The coronavirus outbreak has shut down schools in dozens of states, of course, so that means school plays and musicals have been cancelled, too, but kids still have a chance to shine thanks to broadway stair laura bonanti who is asking kids on twitter to post their rehearsal videos. Take a look. This may seem silly, but i know a lot of high schools were going to have their musicals, and those musicals got cancelled. If you would like to sing a song that you are not going to get to sing now and tag me, i want to see you. I want to hear it. I want to be your audience, she said. Bonanti who just starred in my fair lady has gotten lots of responses and she was tagged thank you, laura, thank you, kids. Im watching, too, and my son came home from college. His musical was cancelled. Hell in chicago. Did he post one . Not yet, but hes been singing for mow. Nick is good though, anthony. So many kids across the country, so disappointed as they have put in so much work and this is such a great gesture. A beautiful thing. Not silly at all. Youre up next. On the bright side here when it comes to a quarantine, you might be thinking you dont have to come up with an excuse to not go to a party. You dont really have to have any fear of missing out because people are sitting at home and you might not have to go to the gym because the gym may be shut. In spain where the gyms are shut, along with just about Everything Else, one workout instructor says no, youve still got to get moving, went on his roof and pumped the volume on his stereo and did a workout class from his roof. The neighbors saw him doing it. Everyone came out on their balcony in their workout clothes. All in lockdown there in spain and put the whole class together with crunches and squats and everyone got a good sweat in. Thats really ive been worried about that. Ive been expecting my gym to close and worried what am i going to do . Your gym hasnt closed yet. Debating whether or not i should go. Thats going to change the day. Thats going to change today. What have you got . Ive got a coronavirus story, too. Just like yours its really nice. Bittersweet wedding anniversary for a man in connecticut because of the coronavirus. This is bob sllard, unable to visit his wife at a nursing home this weekend to celebrate their 67th wedding anniversary. Oh, wow. This is the first time they have ever been apart on their big day. Instead he made a sign and held it up to his wifes window so he could see it. His message ive loved you 67 years and still do. Happy anniversary, she she has it, he doesnt, and this is the first time, but theres a shot of her waving in the window at him, and its just so sweet. Im so love love. 67 years. Hopefully they wll be back together very soon and they have never missed a wedding anniversary together. I like it. Their daughter took them. All right. Were going to step away from the Coronavirus Crisis for just a moment. We want to focus on our women in uniform who serve at home and abroad as we celebrate womens history month. Thats this march. Women make up about 17 of personnel across the military branches, but that number is rising, and with it the number of female leaders. Charlie dagata traveled to the uss mt. Whitney in the mediterranean she to meet the Navy Vice Admiral kathy. Good morning from the deck of the uss mount whitt any, the flagship of the sixth fleet and the focus is on the commander of the fleet who not long ago would have been forbidden from even serving on this ship. That is the sound of a bowsins pipe, and this ceremony isnt held for any top brass. Threestar vice admiral lei san kathy is not the highest ranking commander on board but the commander of the entire sixth fleet, the only female fleet commander in the u. S. Navy. Could have you have dreamed way back when when your career began that you would be here . Never dreamed it. And when the admiral joined, women werent even allowed on combat vessels, let alone to hold leadership positions and joining came by chance. Its kind of a funny story. I didnt really have this dream when i was growing up. In fact, i really wanted to be you. Yes, like you, multiaward winning Foreign Correspondent. So this is where it all began. Reporter grow got her journalism degree at Northwestern University where she joined the rotc program to help pay her way. And the rest is the history. 34 years later here i am. Reporter 34 years ago little did she know things were about to change. I will faithfully execute reporter in the same year of his inauguration in 1993 president clinton revealed the prohibition of women serving on combat vessels. The law changed, policy changed and i was assigned to my first ship and i want to command a combatant ship and then after that a squadron and really aspirational command a fleet. Reporter a fleet tasked with keeping watch over one of the most volatile regions on the planet. So you see adversaries in europe, you see the russia threat and you look to the middle east and you see everything that emanates out of the middle east. Reporter and the Mount Whitney is up with of the most sophisticated command and control ships ever commissioned. We got a rare glimpse at the very heart of it, the joint operation center. Basically this is where the magic happens. Reporter the ship embarked with a helicopter which trntsports the admiral hand staff to and from the sixth fleet headquarters in naples, italy. Scale of the area under control is staggering, 20 million square fought call miles from the north pole to the south where u. S. Forces are face to face with americas adversaries. Reporter adversaries like russia increasingly belligerent since invading crimea, stepping up war footing in its naval base in syria, both under the watch of the sixth fleet. Do you feel the pressure . I mean, we all feel the pressure in what we do in support of our National Security interests makes a difference. Now every day our forces father, and the message that we send by what we do matters. Reporter it matters to senior chief poet officer ray and lieutenant stephanie wechsler. How important is it to see women in leadership roles for somebody in your position . I think its very important. I think that ultimately people do need to see people who look like them. While you want good quality people regardless of gender, its still important because theres some fundamental piece that i think speaks to every woman that says that could be me some day. Reporter really engages with as many people as she can. Yes. Shes very approachable. She actually does come and say hello, how are you . How are you your families . Reporter its a very stratified command structure. Theres a formality at the top, but she sort of breaks down those structures it seems. To be fair though i wouldnt say she completely breaks it down. You still remember when youre speaking to her thats a threestar admiral but it doesnt hurt to treat people like humans. Reporter admiral franchetti says interacting with them is important.

Throughout this week were going to examine what the new normal looks like including how we work, socialize, and also get lifesaving information. Right about now for many, it means working from home. That is the new normal. And cbs news contributor Derek Thompson has been doing that on and off now for about seven years. He wrote an article about it in the atlantic titled the coronavirus is creating a huge stressful experiment in working from home. Thats definitely true. Good morning, a lot of people swear they are productive when they work from home, and they r. One entrepreneur told you its not a good idea and not effective for most companies s. That because of the fridge, the couch, and the television . Yeah. I think it general when you think about the benefits of remote work, its you want to leave the the bad stuff about the office at the office and take the good parts of the office home. So a good part about the office is that you have routine. The office is not your couch. You have to leave your couch and go to the office in order to work. That sort of division between work life and leisure time is really difficult to import back to your own living room. Your own kitchen counter. Your own bedroom. Its especially difficult right now i should say during a pandemic when you have schools canceled, the kids are home, the restaurants are closed. Its a very different situation than you might typically have. But theoretically thats the benefit of remote work is that you have time to focus on your own. You have time to struck your time as you want. Managers structure your time as you want. When you work for home, managers can judge you by what you achieve. Are they really not judging . Are they really not judging . And what conversations should managers and employees have with each other before they before they start working from home . I talk to a lot of researchers the last few days, the last few weeks about our sort of brief remove work future here with the pandemic. And two words kept coming back to me information and isolation. They said the office, at the office you have a lot of information, and you have low isolation. Youre surrounded by people. You can see what theyre like. When youre home, however, you have less information about your coworkers, and you feel more isolated. So i think whats really important for managers and workers to get right, to make remote work work is they have to overcommunicate. If youre getting up and going for a walk, let that person know. If you want to have a conversation with your boss, dont just make it a text or make it a slack, maybe see their face so you can see their expression when you give an idea and they say, hmm, i need to think about that. You can see exactly what hmm, i ned to think about that, what it means. When people type it, you think they dislike me, theyre criticizing me. When you see expressions in faces you realize emotions are more complicated. Derek im a huge fan of video conferencing. A lot of people doing there for the first time are stressed out about it. I have a wife whos a teacher suddenly at home. Shes got to set up a classroom at home. I have a daughter whos a researcher worried about being alone a lot. Loneliness is an issue in this, isnt it . Loneliness is a huge issue. That is, again, a word that kept coming back to me when i was talking to people. When i said whats the most surprising thing you have to tell me about remote work experiments that youve seen other companies try, they sent saying the most surprising thing is the loneliness factor, the isolation. Thats going to be so much worse in a pandemic when youre not allowed to leave your house in many cases. If you look at italy and spain, places in the u. S. Where it becomes difficult to do anything outside of your own home. Youre g have real isolation, real loneliness problems, and i do think that as long as were evaluating the degree to which remote work, we we need to to see what is episcop because of the pandemic. Youll have forced childcare at home. In remote work generally schools are open, restaurants will still be serving foods. You can go work at a cafe. So you want to keep the two issues separate. Youre pointing out really good distinctions. What do you do to make it as stress free as possible . I think about two things. I think about routine, i think about physical activity. Again, with routine, ive written a lot for the atlantic about how the boundary between work and leisure was already becoming extremely porous. Once you work from your couch and your couch is where you want netflix and where you talk to your manager and where you write articles, that boundary between work and leisure completely falls apart. Its important i think to set up routines. What are you going to accomplish in the morning, how are you going to take breaks, when are you going to stop working. Physical activity. Youre going to go crazy if you dont do anything inside, if you keep pacing between the refrigerators and the kitchen counter. So trying to build physical activity into my day is a challenge, but one that i try to do. The walking to the fridge doesnt counts. We appreciate you coming into the studio for us. Well let you get home now i guess. Thank you. Thank you. On todays cbs this morning podcast, Jennifer Steinhauer discusses history boom and what she learned covering tale trailblazers.
