COVID-19 & US healthcare system: Flattening the Third

U.S. sets single-day record for COVID-19 cases during new surge

Quote:The spike of 84,218 cases — breaking the record of 77,299 set on July 16 — comes as University of Washington researchers forecast that the U.S. death toll from COVID-19 could reach a total of 500,000 by February.

Election-battleground states Ohio, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin also set one-day record highs on Friday.

Quote:The number of possible deaths could drop by 130,000 if 95 per cent of Americans would cover their faces, the IHME said, echoing a recommendation by Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

One bright spot:

Quote:The Northeast remains the one region of the county without a significant surge in cases, but infections are trending higher. Boston public schools shifted to online-only learning this week.

So whatever it is that they're doing, the rest of you should do the same.
