“We are also so very grateful to all the health care professionals across the country and around the world who are on the front lines during COVID-19. This global pandemic is a catastrophe. I am proud to say that over the past seven days, we have raised a total of $35 million. It is really important to think globally,” Lady Gaga said.

Meanwhile, the U.S. government has released new guidelines on when movie theaters, restaurants and other establishments could reopen amid the coronavirus pandemic. The guidelines are divided into three phases and the states need to satisfy a list of criteria to move through each phase.
