US Logs A Record 3,157 Coronavirus Deaths In One Day by BeLookingIDIOT(m): 9:49pm On Dec 03, 2020
The US recorded its highest daily number of coronavirus deaths on Wednesday, as the number of people admitted to hospital with Covid exceeded 100,000 for the first time since the pandemic began.

According to the Johns Hopkins University tracker, 3,157 new deaths were recorded on Wednesday. The previous high was the 2,607 deaths recorded on 15 April, at the beginning of the pandemic.
There were 200,070 new cases on Wednesday, only the second time that new cases had exceeded 200,000. With the total caseload now standing at 13,911,728, the US is expected to record its 14-millionth case on Thursday, and experts predict the death toll could reach nearly 450,000 by the end of February.

The deaths, cases and hospitalizations showed a country slipping deeper into crisis, with perhaps the worst yet to come, in part because of the delayed effects from Thanksgiving last week, when millions of Americans disregarded warnings to stay home and celebrate only with members of their household.

Across the US, the surge has swamped hospitals and left nurses and other healthcare workers shorthanded and burned out.
The reality is December and January and February are going to be rough times. I actually believe they are going to be the most difficult time in the public health history of this nation,” Dr Robert Redfield, head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said on Wednesday.

Redfield said that about 90% of hospitals in the country were at stretched capacity.

“We are at a very critical time right now about being able to maintain the resilience of our healthcare system,” he said.

The grave total came as Joe Biden, the president-elect, threw his weight behind a bipartisan $908bn coronavirus relief effort in Congress which would provide $300 a week in federal unemployment benefits and direct $160bn to states and cities.

For months now deaths have drastically reduced
Countries like Dubai are fully open for business.

Corona one side, economy the other side.
But in some countries especially Europe. No one understands who is transpiring.

God, only you know who is operating the Corona Virus.

No wonder DXY (dollar index) has been plunging down lately.
