Passengers aboard a virus-hit cruise liner in California have begun disembarking after being kept off the coast of San Francisco for five days.

Nineteen crew members and two passengers on the Grand Princess have tested positive for Covid-19.

The vessel carrying 3,500 people from 54 countries, has docked in Oakland.

The US has reported more than 607 coronavirus cases and 24 deaths. President Donald Trump said it had "blindsided" the world.

Cases of the virus have been recorded in 34 states plus Washington DC.

The number of infections worldwide is more than 109,000, with about 3,800 deaths.The Grand Princess cruise ship came to the attention of authorities when a previous voyager on the vessel died last week after being stricken by the coronavirus.

The 71-year-old, who had an underlying health condition, had been on a round trip from San Francisco to Mexico in February.The operation to move passengers from the Grand Princess is due to be completed on Tuesday.

Passengers requiring urgent medical care are being taken to hospital first. Then US residents not needing treatment will be moved to military bases in California, Texas and Georgia for a 14-day isolation period.

Several hundred foreign passengers, including 140 Britons, will be repatriated to their home countries.

The UK Foreign Office said it was "working intensively" with US authorities to arrange a flight for British nationals which is currently expected to leave the US on Tuesday evening and return to the UK by Wednesday afternoon.

Passenger Linda Stennett, from Shrewsbury, told BBC Radio Shropshire the Foreign Office had confirmed in an email that they would be sending a plane to repatriate Britons.

"We know when we dock, that the Americans will be getting off first and that is going to take, they reckon, two to three days, and I think we are after that, hopefully."

Ms Stennet said morale is good on board, but that passengers are "going a bit stir crazy" after being confined to their rooms for so long.

The Canadian government will be also repatriating over 200 Canadian nationals on the vessel. All asymptomatic Canadians will be flown home and placed under 14-day quarantine at a military base in Ontario.

Any symptomatic individuals will be further screened and may be treated in the US, Canadian officials said.

The ship's crew members will remain quarantined on board, which will depart from Oakland as soon as the passengers have disembarked, officials said.

"No one will be quarantined in Oakland, or released to our community," Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf told a news conference.

The ship is operated by Princess Cruises, which also owns the Diamond Princess, which was placed into quarantine in Japan last month.

Several other Princess Cruises have been blocked, with the Regal Princess held off the coast of Florida until coronavirus testing is completed.

Another cruise ship, the Costa Fortuna, with around 2,000 aboard, was turned away by Malaysia and Thailand, an official said.

Coronavirus hits US capital
The virus' spread has also reached Washington DC, affecting lawmakers and locals - and putting President Donald Trump only two degrees of separation away from the outbreak.

The first confirmed case of Covid-19 in the capital is a church rector in his 50s. DC officials on Monday urged the several hundred members of Christ Church Georgetown to voluntarily self-quarantine for 14 days.

The second DC case is a man currently in hospital in Maryland who had stayed in the capital for a night before being diagnosed.

Four Republican lawmakers - Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar, Georgia Congressman Doug Collins and Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz - are also self-quarantining after shaking hands with an infected individual at a conservative political conference at the end of last month.

Mr Trump and Vice-President Mike Pence also attended the event. While neither directly interacted with the individual, Mr Trump did shake hands with the conference chairman who had had contact with the patient.

And Mr Gaetz boarded the presidential plane Air Force One with Mr Trump on Monday before announcing that he had been tested for the virus.

At a news conference on Monday evening, Mr Pence was asked if President Trump had been tested, but he was unable to say.

The president has continued to urge calm in the midst of the outbreak, taking to Twitter on Monday to compare Covid-19 to the common flu.The president told reporters that he was proposing measures to cut taxes to support the economy.

"We'll be discussing a possible payroll tax cut or relief, substantial relief, very substantial relief, that's a big number," Mr Trump told the White House briefing.

What's the situation in Canada?
As of Monday morning, there were 76 confirmed or presumptive cases of people carrying the coronavirus disease in Canada, including one confirmed death in North Vancouver, British Columbia.

Most of the cases are in the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia, though some have also been discovered in Quebec and Alberta.

Canadian public health officials are advising against all cruise ship travel. Just last week, Canadian passengers of the Diamond Princess cruise ship were released from quarantine.

Italy is extending its coronavirus quarantine measures, which include a ban on public gatherings, to the entire country.

Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said that people would only be permitted to travel for work or family emergencies.

He said the measures, which come into effect on Tuesday, were to defend the most fragile members of society.

Italy's coronavirus death toll jumped on Monday by 97 to 463. It is the worst-hit country after China.

The number of confirmed infections also increased to 9,172, up from 7,375 on Sunday, official figures show.

Cases of the virus have been confirmed in all 20 Italian regions.

What did Mr Conte say?
In a televised address on Monday, Mr Conte said that Italy's "customs must change" and that the best thing was for people to stay at home.

"We're having an important growth in infection... and of deaths," he said.We all must give something up for the good of Italy. We have to do it now, and we'll only be able if we all collaborate and adapt to these more stringent measures.

"This is why I decided to adopt even more strong and severe measures to contain the advance... and protect the health of all citizens."The prime minister added that all sporting events - including football matches - were being suspended nationwide.

In an earlier interview with La Repubblica newspaper, Mr Conte said of the outbreak: "These days, I have been thinking about the old speeches of [Winston] Churchill - it is our darkest hour, but we will make it".What are the restrictions?
Mr Conte described the measures as "I stay home" - with people forbidden to assemble in public.

"No more nightlife; we can't allow this anymore since they are occasions for contagion," he said.

The restrictions are similar to those earlier applied to the worst affected Lombardy region, and 14 other provinces. The government has said only those with a valid work or family reason that cannot be postponed will be permitted to travel.

Passengers departing on flights, except temporary visitors, will have to justify themselves, as will all those arriving by plane.

There are controls at train stations to check temperatures.

Cruise ships are forbidden to dock at various ports.

What else is happening in Italy?
Earlier on Monday, six inmates died amid riots at prisons across the country after authorities suspended all visits as part of attempts to control the spread of the disease.

The trouble began in the northern city of Modena after inmates at the Sant'Anna prison were told that all visits had been suspended.

Three people were reported to have died at the prison, while a further three died after being transferred from there.

It is thought that at least two of the dead lost their lives to drug overdoses after they raided a prison hospital for the heroin substitute methadone.

At San Vittore prison in Milan, detainees set fire to a cell block on one of the facility's six wings, then climbed onto the roof through windows and started waving banners, officials said.

At a prison in the southern city of Foggia, about 20 inmates managed to break out of the building during protests. Many were quickly recaptured, Italy's Ansa news agency reported.

There were also riots at several other prisons in northern Italy and at facilities in Naples and the capital, Rome.

What is the situation elsewhere?
The number of infections worldwide is now more than 111,000, with about 3,890 deaths.

Everyone arriving in Israel will be required to self-quarantine for 14 days, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced.

Iran has reported 43 new deaths related to the disease in the past 24 hours. At least 237 people have died and 7,161 have been infected across the country since mid-February, although the real figures are believed to be far higher.

China, which has recorded the highest number of fatalities, reported just 40 new cases of Covid-19, the lowest since 20 January.

Although this indicates that the spread there is slowing, senior officials warned against reducing vigilance.

In other developments:

The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that the threat of a pandemic is "very real"
Canada has confirmed the first death related to the virus - an elderly male patient in a care home in Vancouver, British Columbia
In France, Culture Minister Franck Riester has become the first member of the government to be infected with the virus. His team said he had spent several days of the past week in parliament, where a number of other cases have been confirmed
In the US, the number of confirmed cases now exceeds 500
A cruise ship carrying thousands of people who were stranded for days due to a coronavirus outbreak is reported to have docked at the port of Oakland, near San Francisco
