7.53 The New Year starts with the US surpassing 20 million cases of coronavirus
The United States
kicked off the New Year on Friday by surpassing the sad threshold of 20 million
coronavirus
cases
, hours after global celebrations to welcome 2021 were largely silenced by the
coronavirus
.
The world's leading economy has failed in its efforts to control the virus, which continues to spread rapidly across the country and has already caused more than 346,000 deaths, the highest national death toll by far.
Global hopes that
Covid-19
vaccines will
bring a quick end to the pandemic in 2021 have been shaken by the slow start of the immunization program in the United States, hit by logistical problems and overloaded hospitals.
Almost 2.8 million Americans have already received their first doses, but the number is well below the 20 million inoculations that the administration of outgoing President
Donald Trump
had promised before the end of 2020.
