New York has reported its deadliest day since the coronavirus pandemic began, with 731 deaths in the state in the past 24 hours. | Read more:

Spain has the most cases at 140,510.The US is prepared this week for what one official called the "peak death week" of Covid-19.

Residents in the state are required to stay home except for essential business since 20 March and now more than 94% of Americans are under similar orders. Medical tents in wooden crates were brought into St John's, which describes itself as the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and whose nave has been emptied of pews."Traditionally, in earlier centuries, cathedrals were always used this way, like during the Plague," said the dean of the cathedral, Clifton Daniel III.

Cathedral officials told the New York Times that Covid-19 patients could start arriving within a week. Doctors and pharmacists from more than half a dozen large healthcare systems in New York, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Ohio, Washington and California said they are routinely using hydroxychloroquine on patients with Covid-19.

"I may take it," Mr Trump said on Saturday, referring to hydroxychloroquine, though he has twice tested negative for coronavirus, according to the White House.Potential side effects of hydroxychloroquine include vision loss and heart problems. But doctors say they are comfortable prescribing the drug for a short course of several days for coronavirus patients because the risks are relatively low and the therapies are inexpensive and generally available.
