At his daily briefing on Saturday, President Trump gave a grim warning about the week to come, according to BBC.
Trump said "there will be death" and promised medical supplies and military personnel to combat the virus in some of the worst-hit states.
BBC also reports Trump said his administration would be deploying a "tremendous amount of military, thousands of soldiers, medical workers, professionals" to combat the virus.
According to The New York Times, the president also suggested again that Americans might be able to congregate for Easter Sunday services.
Trump said that the holiday would be a particularly “sad” day for Americans prohibited from gathering in large numbers. He said he would again like to consider relaxing social distancing rules for Easter services
More than 8,000 people have died so far in the United States, but the White House has said its projections show that at least 100,000 people could die because of the virus, The New York Times reports.
