Corona death in the United States crosses World War I.The United States has become a death knell for coronavirus infection. Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated during this time. Corona deaths have surpassed the country’s total death toll during World War I, with 720 more deaths in the last 24 hours. The news agency AFP is giving this information in a report.
According to the latest data, the total number of deaths due to the epidemic in the United States so far stands at more than 119,000. That is more than the number of U.S. citizens killed in World War I. In addition, more than 2.2 million people in the United States have been infected with the virus.
The United States participated in the World War from 1914 to 1918 as an ally. Despite the victory, millions of people in the country had to give their lives in the war. Corona deaths in late April surpassed the total number of US casualties in the 16-years long Vietnam War.
The United States is in the throes of an epidemic. There is no other country in the world that is at the top of the world in terms of covid-19 disease and death. Although the outbreak began in China, the United States topped the list before March. The situation in the United States is very bad as the infection has not been reduced for three months in a row.
However, as the number of daily deaths in the past two days has been below 400, it was thought that the situation in the United States may be much better this time. After more than seven hundred new deaths in the last twenty-four hours, that possibility has turned into fear. Meanwhile, protests across the country have raised concerns about the spread of the infection.
An average of 20,000 people are still diagnosed with the disease every day in the United States. Although the situation has not improved much, President Trump and his administration have stepped in to ease the lockdown. He is desperate to restore his image by launching the country’s economy ahead of the upcoming elections.
