(Fighting New Coronary Pneumonia) More Than 6.6 Million People Diagnosed With New Coronary Pneumonia in the US Experts Concerned Many States Have Started Relaxing Epidemic Prevention Measures
China News Service, Washington, September 15 (Reporter Sha Hanting) The number of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States surpassed 6.6 million at 15 local time, and the death toll surpassed 195,000.
According to statistics from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, at 10:00 p.m. on the 15th, more than 6,603 million confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States and 195,727 deaths. Among them, 767,000 were confirmed in California, 692,000 were confirmed in Texas, 668,000 were confirmed in Florida, 445,000 were confirmed in New York State, and 296,000 were confirmed in Georgia.
In recent days, data from the new corona pneumonia epidemic in the United States have shown a downward trend: the number of cases increasing daily has remained at 36,000, lower than the 67,000 of the “peak” period of end of July; Previous data of more than 1,000 people.
Due to signs of improvement in the epidemic situation, many states have once again begun to relax restrictions on epidemic prevention. Mississippi allows the number of people in the city’s restaurants to reach 75% of maximum capacity. New Jersey allows the reopening of gyms, indoor restaurants, etc. Many cities in Florida, the “hot spot” of the previous epidemic, began allowing bars to “reset” while guaranteeing 50% of their maximum capacity.
Medical experts expressed concern about the relaxation of epidemic prevention measures in many states. They believe that although the current number of new cases is decreasing, it still remains at a high value and there are still high risks when going to bars, gyms and cinemas.
Affected by the new corona pneumonia epidemic, most states in the United States began adopting “domestic order” and other epidemic prevention measures in March. As the number of cases began to decline in May and June, many states began to loosen restrictions and restart their economies, then tightening their epidemic prevention measures after the epidemic recovered.
Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, said on the 15th that in the current circumstances, measures such as the use of masks and not gathering crowds are still necessary. He reminded the public that the situation against the epidemic is still serious and vigilance cannot be relaxed, otherwise the epidemic will recover again.
The University of California, Los Angeles recently announced a study showing that new coronary pneumonia cases may have appeared in the United States as early as December 2019. After analyzing 10 million medical records, the study concluded that as of December 22 As of December of last year, the number of airway-related illnesses in the United States has “statistically increased” over the past five years, which may be related to new coronary pneumonia.
In addition, the president of the United States House of Representatives, Pelosi, said on the 15th that the House of Representatives will not adjourn until the two parties agree on a new round of economic stimulus plan to face the epidemic. According to the regulations, Congress will go into suspension in early October of the general election year. The US media believes that despite Pelosi’s determination, the two parties may not be able to reach a consensus on an economic stimulus plan before the elections.
Negotiations on this round of the economic stimulus package take place over several months, but it is still difficult to reach an agreement due to the large differences between the two parties on the total amount of aid. Most of the aid projects previously approved by Congress expired in early August. (Finish)
