US now has more coronavirus cases than any other country
The US now has more coronavirus cases than any other country. At least 82,404 Americans have been affected with COVID-19, a running count by Johns Hopkins University researchers showed Thursday evening. China, were the outbreak began, had 81,782 and Italy had 80,589. New York accounts for a large slice of the US cases, with at least 37,258 reported and 385 deaths. Other states with high case counts include New Jersy with 6,876, California with 3,894, Michigan with 2,856, and Washington with 2,580, according to local health departments. The US population is around 330 million, a fraction of chinas is 1.4 billion, but higher than the 60 million in Italy, which became the epicenter of the pandemic in Europe. More than half-million people worldwide have fought the illness. At least 120,00 have recovered.

I think its so crazy how this virus spread really fast at a short amount of time. The virus has been spreading from person-to-person with people that are in close contact with one another within about 6 feet. Some people might have this virus and not even know I believe that that if they do have the virus they do not know until 15 days. This virus can be contained but people are choosing to not listen and not stay in lockdown. It's hard staying at home all the time specially for teens and young kids but if people like in Florida are not following the rules the virus will spread more and it will continue to spread. This virus doesn't care how old you are or young because it is attacking everyone now.
ReplyDeleteIts interesting to see how fast the virus has spread and with doctors telling us what to do to keep safe and not catch the virus, so while some of us are listening there is a good majority who aren't and still out in public which isn't helping to stop the spreading of the virus.
