Whats true, and whats not? Who should you believe, and who shouldnt you? The coronavirus outbreak has much of America asking itself these questions. Heres a list of doctors, officials and researchers who have answers, facts and stiff upper lips. And where we could, we asked them to suggest more like-minded people to follow. Well update as their responses come in.

If you want to follow them en masse, go to this Twitter list built through my Twitter account.

(H/T to my colleagues Alex Knapp and Leah Rosenbaum for helping put this roster together.)
