On Saturday, Alphabet Inc’s Google launched a U.S.-focused website with coronavirus guidance and testing information, as it works to curb the coronavirus spread.

The site google.com/covid19 has resources and links on the potentially deadly respiratory illness COVID-19 and shall soon be available in more languages and countries.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced last Sunday that it was partnering with the U.S. government to create this website by the 16th of March.

The website’s launch was delayed as local and national guidance changed significantly from Sunday to Monday. Google then announced that it would roll out the website later in the week.
