More than 20 million corona infections in the USA

Since the beginning of the corona pandemic, more than 20 million infections with the virus have been detected in the United States. This corresponds to around a quarter of all infections with the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen recorded worldwide, as data from the Johns Hopkins University in the US city of Baltimore emerged on Friday. In no other country in the world are there as many confirmed infections in absolute terms as in the USA.

In India the number is 10.3 million and in Brazil 7.7 million. Experts assume a high number of unreported cases in most countries. Around 330 million people live in the USA. More than 346,000 deaths related to Covid-19 are known there.

France reported 19,348 new infections and 133 other deaths. The government had set the target of fewer than 5,000 new infections. From Saturday, the blocking period for the night curfew is to be brought forward from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in several parts of the country.
