Reuters analyzed data reported by US states and counties and found that in the seven days ending December 20, the new corona epidemic claimed more than 18,000 lives, an increase of 6.7% over the week before, equivalent to every 33 seconds. One person died.
Although health officials urged not to travel on vacation, 3.2 million people were screened at US airports from the 18th to the 20th, showing that people don’t take this seriously. Medical staff are concerned that if new cases spike rapidly over the holidays, the hospital will be overwhelmed with time. Health experts say the rapid rise in confirmed cases and deaths of the new crown in the United States in recent days was caused by the Thanksgiving gathering last month.
Although the United States has begun vaccination, it may take several months for the vaccine to have an effect on the new corona epidemic. There are now two vaccines that have received emergency use authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine was the first to be approved for use and the Modena vaccine was approved on 18 of this month.
About 2.9 million doses of Pfizer vaccines were distributed last week, primarily to medical personnel. By the afternoon of the 20th, local time, more than 500,000 people had been vaccinated. Modena’s vaccination started on day 21.

Both vaccines must receive two doses. Health Minister Azar said that by the end of January 2021, an estimated 50 million people in the United States have received the first dose of the vaccine.
