Wikipedia's says between 2 and 4. But Ro is variable. SARS was able to be pushed down below 1 very easily once it was recognized because typically only very symptomatic patients were passing it on. Coronavirus requires stronger distancing measures to lower Ro because of the degree of mild or asymptomatic cases which are still transmissible.
It seems we may have reduced it to 1 or even below 1 at least in California at this time.
