According to reports, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released data on the 21st that the actual number of people infected with the new coronavirus in different parts of the United States is 2 to 13 times higher than the reported number.
The researchers analyzed samples of patients from 10 cities and states who undergo routine clinical examinations or hospitalizations to find evidence of previous viral infections, and released early data from all 10 sites in the JAMA magazine on the 21st.
"These data continue to show that the number of people infected with the new coronavirus far exceeds the number of reported cases." said Dr. Fiona Havers, who led the study. "Many of these people may have no symptoms or only mild symptoms, and they may not know that they are infected."
The study showed that about 40% of people infected with the new coronavirus have no symptoms, but they can still spread the virus to others. The study also showed that even in the most severely affected area, New York City, where nearly a quarter of the people have been exposed to the virus, it is far from achieving herd immunity. Experts believe that to achieve herd immunity, at least 60% of people must have been exposed to the virus.

Both indicators will be monitored on a rolling seven-day average. Currently, residents of 31 states across the United States are required to comply with this rule.
The regulations also stated that visitors who are found to have violated the new "quarantine order" upon arrival will face a fine of USD 1,000 for the first violation, a fine of USD 5,000 for the second violation, and a fine of USD 10,000 for those who cause harm. .
In order to control imported cases from other states, New York Governor Cuomo also requires visitors from isolated states to fill out a form. Violators will face a fine of 2,000 yuan and a court summons. Passengers who do not fill in this form may eventually be forced to quarantine. On the 21st local time, New York Governor Cuomo admitted that the quarantine measures were "imperfect", but he insisted that quarantine can help protect states from the risk of increased spread of the virus. New Jersey and Connecticut do not currently have this policy.
