Brix said there have been 'significant declines week over week' in new COVID-19 cases, while outlining which metro areas have yet to see a decrease in cases.
White House coronavirus task force coordinator Dr. Deborah Brix says there has been"a dramatic decline across the states" in the percent of coronavirus positive cases.
Every state in the nation has begun reopening, with Connecticut being the last to join on Wednesday when outdoor restaurants and retail businesses reopened alongside offices, museums, zoos and other outdoor recreation. The stay-at-home order in Virginia expired May 3, and the order in place in Maryland followed suit two weeks later on May 15. The District of Columbia is still under stay-at-home orders, which is set to expire June 8.
On Tuesday, Brix told a group of reporters at the White House that,"We're dissecting each one of these plateaus and providing daily updates to the task force on what's community spread and what's outbreak in terms of new cases. We study these three metros that are closed and have been closed to understand where precisely the new cases are coming from and how to prevent new infections.
