The data published by John Hopkins University revealed that the number of daily COVID-19 cases in the United States reached a new record in the past 24 hours to land at 48,940. The infections in the country now count 2,467,510. The number of fatalities, on the other hand, decreased significantly compared to yesterday’s figures to 690, bringing the death toll since the virus outbreak to 125,045. Earlier in the day, Florida hit a new record in daily infections, while Texas and the city of San Francisco postponed reopening as the number of infections rose. Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci said the recent surge in cases represents a “serious situation,” which Vice President Mike Pence dismissed as a result of increased testing. Nick Note: before you break out the Champaign on the lower death rates its important you understand the time line. First you get infected. 15 days later(while infecting everyone around you) you show symptoms and test positive, Two weeks from the first sign of symptoms 25% ARE SICK ENOUGH TO BE HOSPITALIZED AND 2 WEEKS LETTER 10% ARE DEAD! Oh they you should know they forget to tell you hospital admissions are in many states at record levels. And in Texas, Arizona and California they will soon run out of hospital beds.Two weeks from now they will tell you about the record death rate.Have a nice day!
