The United States had a total of 121,117 cases of novel coronavirus as of Saturday evening, according to the latest statistics released by Johns Hopkins University.

So far, 2,010 people have died from the virus in the country while 961 have recovered.

CNN reported that at least 215 million Americans are under stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders. U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday backed away from issuing a mandatory two-week quarantine on New York, certain parts of New Jersey and Connecticut, instead calling for a "strong travel advisory" to stem the outbreak. 

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis had advocated a quarantine, but New York Governor Andrew Cuomo told the media that locking down states "isn't legal."
