As are most broadcast programs across the globe. GMA and Today US have devoted every program for the last two weeks completely to coronavirus. Same for Good Morning Britain and other AM programs in Europe.

Tracy Vo is away from Today she is staying in Perth to look after her parents during this crisis.
This morning’s show coming from the Today Extra studio.
