The companies said they will submit the results of the three testing phases, which began on July 27, for review by the scientific community.
The victories in the states of Nevada and Pennsylvania secured the number of delegates needed for Biden’s election, setting aside much of the uncertainty related to the election despite the promise of judicialization of the results by current President Donald Trump. .
News about the presidential race and the vaccine overshadowed alarming data on the coronavirus. On the 4th, the United States was the first country to exceed the mark of 100,000 new cases of contagion by the coronavirus registered (with 107,000). On the 6th, there were 132 thousand cases. On the 8th, another 101 thousand cases were registered, the highest number registered in the country on a Sunday to date.

Upon returning to the United States, analysts believe there is little chance that Trump will be able to change the outcome of the election. The market is keeping an eye on the results of the Senate vote in Georgia. So far, Democrats and Republicans are tied for senator counts, each with 48 confirmed.
Georgia’s outcome should be decisive as to whether Republicans will maintain dominance over the Senate or whether Democrats will take the lead.
