- The coronavirus infection rate in the US dropped by 26% over the last 14 days. Some states, like California, have seen new infections drop by nearly 50%.
- Coronavirus outbreaks, however, remain an issue in a small handful of states like New York, New Jersey, and Vermont.
- Pfizer and Moderna last week promised to ship 140 million vaccine doses to the US this month as the COVID-19 vaccination effort continues to pick up steam.
Even as the coronavirus infection rate continues to drop, it's important to remember that we're not out of the woods just yet. As we've seen play out in several states over the past few months, a sense of complacency in response to a drop in COVID infections can quickly lead to another round of outbreaks.
So here's the good news: coronavirus infections in the US have dropped by 26% over the past two weeks while the death rate has fallen by 21% during that same time frame. As it stands now, the US is seeing about as many new infections as it was seeing all the way back in mid-October. Suffice it to say, we're on an encouraging track.
