This comes as US President Donald Trump warned the coronavirus in America may “get worse before it gets better”.
He also urged Americans to wear face coverings saying “they’ll have an effect” and show “patriotism”.
Mr Trump spoke at the first White House coronavirus briefing for months on Tuesday.
He said: “It will probably unfortunately get worse before it gets better.
“Something I don’t like saying about things, but that’s the way it is.”
Mr Trump added: “We’re asking everybody that when you are not able to socially distance, wear a mask, get a mask.
“Whether you like the mask or not, they have an impact, they’ll have an effect and we need everything we can get.”
During the briefing, Mr Trump took a mask out from his pocket but did not put it on.
The president’s election competitor, Joe Biden, accused Mr Trump of having failed Americans during the coronavirus pandemic.
Mr Biden said: “He’s quit on you, he’s quit on this country.”
