Several hours after Trump declared the coronavirus pandemic a national emergency on Friday, the House of Representatives passed a bipartisan aid package to help ease the economic pain of COVID-19.
As of Saturday night, there were more than 2,900 confirmed cases in the U.S. and at least 59 coronavirus-related deaths, according to data compiled by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University and ABC News reporting.
Globally, there are over 156,000 confirmed coronavirus cases and more than 5,800 deaths.

Saturday's biggest developments:
Trump tests negative, White House says
Here's how the news unfolded on Saturday. All times Eastern.
The first person to die of coronavirus in Oregon was announced by Gov. Kate Brown on Saturday night.
Brown said in a statement that the person was "a veteran in Multnomah County with underlying health conditions." No further details were provided.
"When several more Oregonians are at this moment battling COVID-19, I ask you to join me in honoring this person's memory by taking the steps we know are necessary to prevent the further spread of this disease," Brown said in a statement. "By taking action together, we can help to slow the rate of infection and protect our friends, neighbors, and loved ones who are most vulnerable."
Multnomah County is in northwest Oregon and contains Portland, the state's biggest city.
Christian Wood, of the Detroit Pistons, has tested positive for the coronavirus, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Wood is the third NBA player to test positive -- following Utah's Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell -- and first not on the Jazz.
The 24-year-old tangled with Gobert, a fellow center, in the paint in a game last week. He was averaging 13.1 points per game until the season was abruptly halted on Wednesday.
Gobert announced Saturday he would be donating $500,000 to people affected by the coronavirus, including workers at the Jazz's home arena.
New Jersey, which announced 69 positive cases of coronavirus in the state earlier in the day, announced its second death Saturday night.
Gov. Phil Murphy said it was a woman in her 50s who was being treated in Monmouth County.

President Donald Trump tested negative for coronavirus, according to a memorandum from his physician.
Sean. P Conley, the president's physician, said that Trump "remains symptom-free" after a dinner with Brazilian delegation, some of whom later tested positive, at Mar-a-Lago a week ago.
"Last night after an in-depth discussion with the President regarding COVID-19 testing, he elected to proceed," Conley said in the letter. "This evening I received confirmation that the test is negative."
Georgia election officials said that the state's Democratic and Republican presidential primaries will be moved from March 24 to May 19.
"Events are moving rapidly and my highest priority is protecting the health of our poll workers, their families, and the community at large," Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement. He added that in-person voting presents an "increased risk to voters and poll workers."
The announcement comes only a day after Louisiana postponed its April 4 presidential primary to June 20 over growing fears of the pandemic. It was the first state to change its presidential primary.
Election officials in four states holding their elections Tuesday -- Arizona, Florida, Illinois and Ohio -- said those elections will go forward as planned.
Mohammed Hameeduddin, the mayor of Teaneck, New Jersey, told ABC News that he is requesting all residents self-quarantine and only leave their homes for food and medicine.
Hameeduddin said that his town is "ground zero" for the infections in the state. At the moment, Teaneck has 18 cases of COVID-19, but he believes people have been walking around with the virus for the past four weeks.
In coordination with the county emergency management and executive, the decision was made to close all schools, municipal buildings, parks and other places people can congregate.
The mayor said that the town's more than 41,000 residents should stay home, avoid interaction and assume that if they were to leave that they would become infected.
With three more deaths in Washington state and the first reported deaths in Louisiana and Virginia, 57 Americans have now died because of the coronavirus.
Two deaths in New York and two deaths in Florida were reported also on Saturday.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced a "declaration of emergency" and severe restrictions for the country of some 46 million people.
Citizens will not be allowed to circulate in public for 15 days, except to buy food, go to a pharmacy or a hospital, or to go to work, should teleworking not be an option, Sánchez said, addressing the nation. People also will be permitted to circulate if it's to help vulnerable people, including children, the elderly or the disabled.
During this time, public transportation will be reduced by 50%.
In France, Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced at a press conference the decision to close all places that receive the public and are "not essential to the continuity of the life of the nation."
This includes restaurants, cafes and cinemas, all of which will be closed until further notice. Places of worship will remain open, but religious gatherings will be postponed. Public transportation will continue, and municipal elections are still scheduled for Sunday.
Berlin enacted similar restrictions, with all public and non-public events in Berlin now prohibited to have crowds of 50 or more.
Restaurants, bars, theaters, museums, places of prostitution and similar places of entertainment will be shut down until further notice. There are exceptions: Restaurants that prepare food on site can remain open, but they'll be required to keep the tables 1.5 meters, about 5 feet, apart.
For public and non-public events with up to 50 persons, organizers must keep an attendance list with everyone's name, postal address and telephone number. The list must be kept for at least four weeks and must be handed over in full at the request of the public health department.
COVID-19-related disruptions to the economy through Friday have cost the U.S. economy approximately $17 billion in gross domestic product, according to Moody's Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi.
If conditions continue through March, it could erase as much as $120 billion, roughly 2.3%, in GDP, amounting to "a serious recession," Zandi said in a note to investors. "And even this assumes nothing else breaks under the stresses the financial system and economy are now under."
"The only shot we have of heading off a recession," he continued, "would be for the Trump administration and Congress to agree to a large (at least $400 billion), well-thought-out fiscal stimulus package" in addition to the fiscal package approved on Friday.
That new package, Zandi said, would need to be implemented by early April.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced new measures to stop the spread of COVID-19, including the closing down of numerous public spaces until further notice.

The Archdiocese of New York has canceled masses beginning this weekend. No time frame was given for when they'd resume.
The decision follows Dutchess County announcing that gatherings of more than 20 people are prohibited, according to a statement from the Archdiocese.
Churches, however, will remain open for private prayer and a private Mass will be livestreamed on the St. Patrick’s Cathedral website.
“Let us pray for all who are sick, as well as doctors, nurses, caregivers and all those working hard to combat the disease," said Timothy Cardinal Dolan, archbishop of New York. "We should also remember those whose lives have been otherwise disrupted, especially anyone who has lost income from a loss of work during this difficult time.”

Verily, which was previously Google Life Sciences, did not provide details on the tool, only saying there was a plan to test it in the Bay Area "with the hope of expanding more broadly over time."
It struck a much different tone than Trump's address Friday, in which he thanked Google for "helping to develop a website. It's going to be very quickly done, unlike websites of the past, to determine whether a test is warranted and to facilitate testing at a nearby convenient location."
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp declared a public health state of emergency.

With a 363 to 40 vote, the House of Representatives passed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act shortly before 1 a.m. Saturday.
The bill, which is an economic aid package designed to help ease the financial pain of the COVID-19 pandemic, will be considered by the Senate on Monday.
"Senators will need to carefully review the version just passed by the House," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in a statement Saturday. "But I believe the vast majority of Senators in both parties will agree we should act swiftly to secure relief for American workers, families, and small businesses."
The cost of the bill is unknown, however, the bill includes $1 billion for National Disaster Medical System to reimburse people without health insurance, $82 million for Defense beneficiaries, $64 million for Indian Health Service and $60 million for veterans.
"This Bill will follow my direction for free CoronaVirus tests, and paid sick leave for our impacted American workers," Trump tweeted Monday prior to the vote.

Despite coming into contact with multiple people who have been diagnosed with the coronavirus, Trump's physician said late Friday night that a home quarantine or COVID-19 test are "not currently indicated."
Last week while hosting the Brazilian delegation at Mar-a-Lago, Trump came in close contact with at least two people who later tested positive for the virus, according to Trump physician Dr. Sean Conley.
One person only had a brief interaction with the president -- a handshake and photograph -- and began to show symptoms three days after the interaction. The other shared a table with the president, but Conley said that person was symptom-free until Friday. Both interactions are defined as "low risk" for transmission, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Given the president himself remains without symptoms, testing for COIVD-19 is not currently indicated," Conley wrote Friday. "I will continue to closely monitor and care for the president."
