Covid19 in North Carolina. 1498 this morning, we have confirmed positive cases and unfortunately, this virus has now taken the lives of eight north carolinians. As a state, i know we are keeping their families and loved ones in our prayers. Our stayathome order is in effect now.

A small bank would have had prosecutions take place within the ranks of the person within the bank. Evidence shows that small banks have had persons prosecuted. But wells fargo created 1. 5 million fraudulent accounts. Wells fargo had over 500,000 credit cards created, fraudulently. Is it the case that if you become so big and you create such a grand scheme, th
Good morning from the studio 57 newsroom at cbs headquarters here in nebeu. Im annemarie green. This morning the coronavirus threat is prompting state officials to take urgent action. Governors in massachusetts, colorado, and North Carolina are now the latest to declare states of emergency. The measure comes as philadelphia reports its first death from the virus. That brings the death toll in the u. S. To at least 32. There are more than 1,000 confirmed infections. In Washington State, family members are on edge after 21 residents at a nursing home tested positive for the virus. Thats the same facility where most of the deaths in the state have occurred. In california passengers continue to disembark from a coronavirus stricken cruise ship in oakland. Theyll be quarantined at military bases or sent back to their home countries.
