Amid the increasing confirmed cases of coronavirus in the United States, a state of national emergency was declared in U.S. by President Donald Trump. Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, the said move allocates up to $40 as assistance to local authorities.

The U.S. President made the declaration in a press conference held in the White House’s Rose Garden based on the report. According to him, he will “unleash the full power of the federal government” in fighting the 2019 novel coronavirus.

Previously, Pres. Trump was quite not in favor of having himself tested for coronavirus. During the press conference, he reverted his stand and said that he will likely to undergo a testing for the disease.

U.S. are expecting millions of testing kits to arrive soon. According to the U.S. President, 1.4 tests may be made available next week and five (5) million may be expected within a month.
