The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published interim guidance on Sunday recommending "that for the next eight weeks, organizers cancel or postpone in-person events that consist of 50 people or more throughout the United States."

This does not include "day to day operations of organizations such as schools, institutes of higher learning or businesses," according to the center. 

There are now more than 3,000 cases of the novel coronavirus in the U.S. and over 60 deaths reported, according to government agencies and the CDC.
