Dr. Fauci on coronavirus in the US: 'It's going to get worse'

Raw video: Coronavirus task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci testifies at the House Committee on Oversight and Reform hearing on preparedness and response to COVID-19 in America.

The University of Maine, where the coronavirus has yet to spread, is encouraging students to stay in their dorms during spring break as more colleges close down and send students home.

University officials are preparing for thousands to stay by keeping dorms and dining halls open to students over the break period from March 16 to 22 without additional room and board charges, Dan Demeritt, a spokesman for the University of Maine System, told the Bangor Daily News.

“We want to encourage students, faculty, and staff to stay here in Maine to limit their potential exposure to coronavirus and to do our part to help halt the spread of this terrible disease,” University of Maine System Chancellor Dannel Malloy said in a statement.

The Bowdoin College campus is nearly empty during spring break, Wednesday, March 11, 2020, in Brunswick, Maine. The school has announced that it's asking students not to return to campus following spring break and will hold classes online due to concerns about the coronavirus. Maine still has no confirmed cases of coronavirus.
