According to a CNN report on the 3rd local time, as states in the United States continue to report deaths of new coronary pneumonia every day, more and more deaths related to the mutant strain B.1.1.7 found in the United Kingdom began to appear.
Health officials in the three states of New Jersey, California, and Alabama have confirmed deaths of the B.1.1.7 variant virus. Although B.1.1.7 may be more easily spread, there is no evidence that it will be more deadly or cause more serious diseases.
The University of Alabama Birmingham Hospital stated on the 3rd that a male patient died of myocarditis and cardiogenic shock on February 2. He was infected with a variant of the new crown virus B.1.1.7 found in the UK.
At a press conference on January 27, New Jersey State Health Commissioner Judy Persichley said that a person infected with a variant of the new crown virus B.1.1.7 died. This person has not been identified and the infected person has potential Health status.
San Diego County, California health officials announced on January 28 that a 71-year-old man had died and that the case “may be” infected with the variant new coronavirus B.1.1.7. Dr. Eric MacDonald, director of epidemiology of San Diego County, said at a press conference that although no samples were tested to confirm that the dead patient was infected with the B.1.1.7 virus, family members who had been in close contact with him were confirmed to be infected. The B.1.1.7 virus is removed, so the deceased is likely to have also been infected.
