the United States, which starts a new school year in the fall, unlike us, preparations for school are in full swing amid the re-spreading of Corona 19. President Trump is pressing on normal school attendance, but the number of child patients has recently shown a surge, raising concerns about whether the school can be properly opened.

study report by the American Pediatrics Association, nearly half of corona19 patients in children infected in the United States came out within the last four weeks.

Of the more than 380,000 children's corona19 patients, 180,000 had emerged within a month, indicating a sharp increase of 90% from the previous four weeks.

The number of children's corona infection cases exploded ahead of the start of school in the fall.

CNN also reported that the number of child patients more than doubled in a month in Florida, where the number of corona19 patients has soared.

In Georgia, which started school about a month earlier than other states earlier, as soon as school opened, hundreds of students and teachers in some areas showed signs of coronavirus suspicion and went into self-isolation.

But President Trump is still pressing schools to open.
