Caught a live WHO update a few days ago on
Novel Coronavirus Outbreak Live World Map
Which is on 24/7 at my place because they have live feeds coming in from all over the world.
As for articles, here are a few that come closest for America:

One of the major discussions is that Italy is a fairly healthy old population, whereas American is a population with a high percentage of obesity, type-2 diabetes and high blood pressure; some of the most unhealthy human beings on earth.
Combine that with New York’s Governor Andre Cuomo’s cleat view of the disconnect between the Feds and the State, and you have an absolute disaster waiting to happen.
Concerning other parts of the world, Russia is finally out of the Corocloset as Moskova is rumoured much worse than reported, India, though fully shut down for 21 days starting yesterday, is a very poor country and may be reporting deaths “from other reasons”.
Brazil refuses to close its beaches and may also not be reporting the true disaster this virus is guilty of.
However, the WHO praised India for their ability to deal with such an event.
