- The U.S. this week set new daily records for coronavirus infections and coronavirus-related deaths.
- CDC director Robert Redfield recently said coronavirus outbreaks in 24 states are so severe that the areas have been designated as 'red zones.'
While vaccines might help us defeat the coronavirus over the next few months, the current state of the coronavirus pandemic in the United States is bad and only getting worse. Earlier this week, the US, for the first time since the pandemic began, reported more than 2,800 coronavirus-related deaths in a 24-hour window. What's more, coronavirus hospitalizations this week hit a record high of 100,660.
Compounding matters is that health experts are anticipating yet another spike in coronavirus infections and deaths on account of the recent Thanksgiving holiday. Despite the CDC urging everyone to avoid travel if at all possible, millions of Americans crossed state lines last week to celebrate the holiday with family and friends. Given the incubation period associated with the coronavirus, Dr. Fauci believes we'll know how bad the Thanksgiving COVID-19 surge is in about two more weeks.
