The fight against the coronavirus is going high tech.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are being deployed to help stop its spread. John Brownstein, chief innovation officer at Boston Children's Hospital and a professor at Harvard Medical School, explains how it's being done.

China said the number of coronavirus cases climbed above 70,000 as the province at the epicenter of the outbreak reported 1,933 new cases, slightly higher than a day earlier.

The head of a Wuhan hospital said a turning point has been reached as new cases fell over the weekend, but the outlook was more cautionary outside of China. The head of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said the outbreak is on the verge of a global pandemic if containment steps fail to show more success.

Deaths were reported in France and Taiwan over the weekend, bringing to five the number of fatalities outside mainland China. The U.S. evacuated some passengers from a cruise ship in Japan, where 355 people have the coronavirus.
