This is the theoretical expansion of the virus (based on observations in Italy and Spain). The number of infected doubles every 3 days if not contained. A theoretical projection shows 1 billion people infected in 3 months time on April 30th, followed by 2 billion 3 days after and the whole planet by May 9th.
Don't panick, just take the appropriate precautions not to spread it but to slow it down instead, simply because there is no healthcare system capable of sustaining such a blow. God bless us all.
