The death toll of Corona 19 surpassed 300,000 on the 14th (local time) when vaccination for a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) began in the United States.

According to Johns Hopkins University in the U.S., the cumulative number of corona19 confirmed cases in the U.S. on this day was 16,383,8504, and the cumulative number of deaths was 302,67 respectively.

It’s been 312 days since February 6, when the first Corona 19 deaths came out in the US. This is an average of 961 people per day.

Recently, the number of deaths has been increasing rapidly. On September 22nd, an additional 100,000 people died in 83 days after the death toll exceeded 200,000.

In particular, the death toll on the 18th of last month exceeded 250,000, and an additional 50,000 victims came out within 26 days, less than a month.

The damage is getting worse as the fall-winter season is over and the family and relatives gather at Thanksgiving.

Even though health officials recommended refraining from travel, millions of people flew across the United States during this period.

The authorities are also concerned as year-end parties are also encouraging an increase in the number of deaths.

Last week, an average of 2403 people died every 40 seconds a day from Corona 19.

The problem is that the death toll will continue to increase in the future. As the number of confirmed cases exploded, the number of hospitalized patients, a leading indicator of the deaths, is breaking new records every day.

Vaccination against the general public began from this day, but it will take several months to reach the stage where the transmission of Corona 19 between people is suppressed through’collective immunity’.

Local health officials are stressing that only observing quarantine rules, such as wearing a mask, is to protect themselves from Corona 19.
