The United States has reached a grim milestone in the fight against coronavirus, passing Italy to become the country with the most deaths in the world. A tally by Johns Hopkins University showed Saturday that 18,860 people have now died in the U.S. since the start of the outbreak. On Saturday, 2,108 people died in the U.S. in the past 24 hours โ the first country in the world to record more than 2,000 deaths in a single day. As a result, the U.S. has now overtaken Italy's total of 18,849. It has recorded more than 505,000 cases. However, experts on the White Houseโs coronavirus task force suggested the outbreak within Americaโs borders is starting to level off slowly, Fox News reported.

Millions of Americans may be staying at home over Easter weekend due to the coronavirus pandemic, but forecasters are warning a storm system is bringing the threat for strong tornadoes starting Saturday as a snowstorm targets the country's northern tier. The National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center (SPC) said that severe thunderstorms are expected Saturday afternoon into Sunday morning from west Texas into parts of Oklahoma, before a significant "outbreak" into the Southeast on Easter. "We've got a lot of weather going on including some really big severe weather tomorrow on Easter Sunday, so a lot of people need to be watching this, some really big tornadoes that we're going to be watching," Fox News Chief Meteorologist Rick Reichmuth said.

President Donald Trump says his instincts will play a key role in his decision about when to reopen the country. The Commander-in-chief called into Fox News' Justice with Judge Jeanine Piro on Saturday evening, where he declared that he would decide 'reasonably soon' on a date when people can get back work. 'We have to get our country get back! People want to get back to work,' he told Piro in the phone interview. Trump has currently extended distancing guidelines through April 30 in light of the coronavirus pandemic that has killed more than 20,000 Americans. He previously wanted to have the country opened back up by Easter, but widespread outrage from doctors forced him to push back the date.

Cops shut down a drive-in church service in Mississippi after the local mayor banned all in-person Easter worship amid the coronavirus lockdown. Police were caught on camera shutting down a drive-in service held by Reverend James Hamilton of the King James Baptist Church in Greenville Thursday, after people flocked to attend the service while social distancing in their cars. Reverends and religious groups voiced outrage over the incident and blasted the decision to ban church services while liqour stores can keep their doors open. This comes as a Kentucky judge ruled in favor of a church and lifted a similar ban on drive-in services, blasting the city's move as 'unconstitutional'. #Quarantine

#NYPD cops stopped a speeding car on the Staten Island Expressway to find a pregnant woman in labor and helped to deliver her baby boy while still on the highway. Officers had pulled over the speeding vehicle just before midnight. That's when they came across a 32-year-mother, already in labor. The cops sprung into action and helped deliver the baby boy while still on the roadway. Police Commissioner Dermot Shea was so proud of the officers that he tweeted footage from inside a patrol car as the mother and her baby boy were taken to a hospital. NYPD Highway officer Adam May, a former EMT, and Sergeant Anthony Delmonte, a former paramedic, had delivered the baby, ABC 7 reported. 'I think God was looking down because we have a former EMT and a former paramedic in the cop and the sergeant,' Shea said.
