The United States neared three million confirmed COVID-19 cases Wednesday, as U.S. President Donald Trump downplayed the risks posed by the pandemic and aggressively pushed for schools to reopen.
The coronavirus is surging in several southern hotspots including Texas, Florida, Louisiana and Arizona, while it has almost entirely receded from its former epicenter in New York and the north-east.
In Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and many other countries, SCHOOLS ARE OPEN WITH NO PROBLEMS. The Dems think it would be bad for them politically if U.S. schools open before the November Election, but is important for the children & families.
America is by far the hardest-hit country in the world, with more than 130,000 deaths -- even as the fatality rate has fallen from highs seen during the late spring peak.In April and May, as many as 3,000 people were dying each day, while for the past few days it has been around 600.These include far greater levels of testing picking up more mild cases, a younger population becoming infected, better treatments -- and the lag time between infection and death among the sickest patients.
The anti-viral remdesivir meanwhile has been shown to reduce the duration of hospital stays, but has not so far been proven to have a significant impact on mortality.
