Maryland Governor Larry Hogan and West Virginia Governor Jim Justice have scheduled press conferences for Monday at 11:00 AM at the State House in Annapolis.

Both governors are expected to update their states on the latest information regarding the Coronavirus.

At several press events last week, Hogan and Justice announced additional restrictions to combat the spread of the disease.

Governor Justice issued the following statement today:

“Opinions for political gain, without medical facts, can be dangerous to all of us. As you saw during my address last night, I am trying with all in me to allow our state to be successful in defeating this disease.

“I am relying on our medical community, as well as the federal government, to give me the recommendations as to whether we should take more stringent action. They have not given those recommendations to me at this time. However, we will be working into the hours of the night tonight, monitoring every single aspect of this, which may very well lead us to take more aggressive measures.

“I have scheduled my next media briefing for tomorrow at 11 a.m. Any further actions will be announced at that time.”
