Hospitals, especially those in areas hard hit by the pandemic, are straining under the influx of patients with Covid-19, and the financial demands of emergency procurement of supplies such as personal protective equipment. Facilities in less stressed areas, meantime, are seeing revenues hammered by elective surgery delays and a decline in patients, who are afraid of contracting the virus in health-care facilities.

All of which is leaving some hospitals on the brink. "Our members are bleeding money right now," said Tom Nickels, executive vice president at the American Hospital Association.

An agency spokeswoman said Mr. Azar is making sure the approach to distribution represents the best thinking across the government and the White House coronavirus task force. HHS is committed to distributing the relief funds in a way that is fast, fair, simple and transparent, she said.

The criticism is adding to complaints about the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus pandemic that has killed about 43,000 Americans since the first case of community transmission within the U.S. was announced almost two months ago. Rural hospitals that have delayed elective procedures are especially hurting, hospital leaders say.

The bipartisan National Governors Association is set to release its plan Wednesday to reopen the U.S. economy in which it cautions against moving too fast amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"Opening prematurely—or opening without the tools in place to rapidly identify and stop the spread of the virus—could send states back into crisis mode, push health systems past capacity, and force states back into strict social distancing measures," the 38-page Roadmap to Recovery says.

The report says governors should continue to request the federal government "rapidly build testing capacity and coordinate distribution to states."

The report also stresses the importance of public communication through regular news conferences and collaboration with other "trusted individuals" such as doctors, business leaders and faith leaders.

Oil tankers carrying enough crude to satisfy 20% of the world’s consumption are gathered off California’s coast with nowhere to go as fuel demand collapses.

Almost three dozen ships — scattered in waters from Long Beach to the San Francisco Bay — are mostly acting as floating storage for oil that’s going unused as the coronavirus pandemic shutters businesses and takes drivers off the road. Marathon Petroleum Corp.’s refinery in Martinez, Calif., has been idled and others, including Chevron Corp.’s El Segundo refinery, have curtailed crude processing as the state orders residents to stay at home.

The more than 20 million barrels of crude is the highest volume of crude to ever float off the West Coast at one time, according to Paris-based Kpler SAS, which tracks tanker traffic. About three-quarters of those tankers are holding oil in storage, meaning they have been floating steadily for seven days, also a record.

Storage has become increasingly scarce as a growing supply glut collides with collapsing fuel demand. As traditional oil tanks have filled, excess oil has been pushed onto tankers to float off Singapore, the U.S. Gulf Coast and, now, the U.S. West Coast.

The Seaexpress, a tanker that normally carries fuel, has been holding crude for Royal Dutch Shell for at least a month in Puget Sound, Wash., after data on the ship’s draft indicated it loaded up at the company’s Anacortes refinery.

A person who died at home in Santa Clara County on Feb. 6 was infected with the coronavirus at the time of death, a stunning discovery that makes that individual the first recorded COVID-19 fatality in the United States, according to autopsy results released by public health officials late Tuesday.

That death — three weeks before the first fatality was reported in the U.S., in Washington state on Feb. 28 — adds to increasing evidence that the virus was in the country far earlier than once thought.

Santa Clara County on Tuesday announced three previously unidentified deaths from the coronavirus: the Feb. 6 case, plus one on Feb. 17, which also pre-dates the earlier first fatality, and one on March 6. Initially, the first death in the county had been reported March 9.

People typically die of COVID-19 about a month after they are infected with the coronavirus, suggesting that the person who died Feb. 6 likely was infected in early January. At that time, the virus had only been reported in China — the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had not yet issued any advisories to Americans about the potential threat.

Santa Clara County officials said in a statement that the medical examiner-coroner had performed autopsies on two people who died at home on Feb. 6 and Feb. 17 and sent tissue samples to the CDC. The CDC confirmed that both samples were positive for the coronavirus on Tuesday.

The county also confirmed a resident who died March 6 had died from COVID-19.

All three residents died at home “during a time when very limited testing was available only through the CDC,” the county statement said.

“Testing criteria set by the CDC at the time restricted testing to only individuals with a known travel history and who sought medical care for specific symptoms,” the statement said. “As the medical examiner-coroner continues to carefully investigate deaths throughout the county, we anticipate additional deaths from COVID-19 will be identified.”

Public health officials could not be reached for comment Tuesday night, and no additional information about the three people who died was available.

The newly formed coalition includes Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi, a part of the country that has underfunded health systems, as well as high rates of obesity, diabetes and other illnesses that amplify the deadliness of the coronavirus.

And unlike their peers in New York, New Jersey and other Northeastern states that have been working cooperatively since last week to restart their economies, the six in the South have lagged on testing and social distancing measures.

"If you put these states together, there is a perfect storm for a massive epidemic peak later on," said Jill Roberts of the University of South Florida's College of Public Health. "The Southeast region is not known for having the best health record. Diabetes and heart disease come to mind. I am very concerned about how our states will do it."
