The number of deaths from the Corona virus in Argentina exceeded 20 thousand yesterday, Thursday, after 3,352 new deaths were recorded within 24 hours.
And the Ministry of Health statement announced that 3,352 new deaths were recorded, most of them in the province of Buenos Aires, bringing the total to 20,288 deaths, with Argentina coming directly behind Russia in terms of the number of deaths.
The South American country, which slowed the spread of the virus with strict public isolation measures last March, recorded 14001 new infections with the emerging corona virus, bringing the total confirmed infections to 76,5002, making Argentina among the top 10 countries in the world in terms of infections.
The changing average of daily infections and deaths in Argentina has continued to rise for seven days, even as the spread of the virus has slowed in other countries in the region in recent weeks, as governments look to reopen their ailing economies.
In another context, the result of the Corona virus sample for US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania appeared after they underwent an examination.
The medical examination showed that Trump and his wife tested positive.
In a related context, US President Donald Trump revealed, today, Friday, that he and his wife Melania will undergo Corona virus tests, after White House adviser Hope Hicks was infected with the virus.
Trump said: “My assistant, Hope Hicks, contracted the virus, and Melania and I performed a corona examination, and we will see the result soon.”
In the same context, American media reported, in urgent news a short while ago, that White House adviser Hope Hicks had been infected with the new Corona virus.
CNN said that Hicks accompanied US President Donald Trump on his trip to Cleveland to attend the presidential debate in front of Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
In another context, the former White House National Security Adviser, John Bolton, considered that the current US President, Donald Trump, may announce the withdrawal of the United States from NATO if he wins the presidential elections.
Bolton said, in an interview on “Times Radio Thursday”, Thursday: “It cannot be said that we convinced him that NATO actually represents a very good alliance, in fact he saw that he could not cross the line and practically call for withdrawal.”
Bolton added, “If he is re-elected, this political barrier will significantly diminish if he does not disappear completely.”
The former adviser explained that, if Trump wins the second presidential term, he will not have to worry much about the possible political reactions inside the United States, and “for this reason his instincts and tendencies will be completely liberated.”
Trump had previously criticized NATO, describing it as an “outdated” alliance, and accused its member states of not paying their “fair” financial share.
