President Donald Trump announced Sunday that he was extending social distancing guidelines in the United States until April 30.

It was a change of course for the president who just last week said he was hoping to have the country "opened up and raring to go by Easter."

Trump said his administration was extending the guidelines with the hope of avoiding a catastrophic death toll.

"So if we can hold that down, as we're saying, to 100,000, it's a horrible number, maybe even less, but to 100,000, so we have between 100 and 200,000, we all together have done a very good job," Trump said during a coronavirus task force briefing Sunday.
