He said: "If we really hear the messages of our health care professionals and we really listen and abide by them, I truly think that we can slow this down and we can have a real shot at saving millions of lives.
"Please, as much as possible, stay in the house. You know, if you have to drink some 'Quarantinis', do what you have to do.
"Go to the backyard and play with the kids. If you're going to hike, please, do it in place where there's not a lot of people. Try as little as you can to go out."
He added: "Let's help each other. Let's be great human beings and let's help to make sure that we are protecting the people that are vulnerable out there.
