The deaths due to the Corona virus in the world exceeded 952 thousand, according to data issued by Johns Hopkins University.

While the US President, Donald Trump, announced that the United States will produce enough doses of the vaccine against "Covid-19" for all Americans by April 2021, several countries in Europe have tightened their health measures to contain a second wave of the epidemic.

In detail, the number of confirmed cases of the emerging coronavirus reached 30 million 504 thousand and 864 cases around the world yesterday, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University and Bloomberg News.

The disease caused by the emerging corona virus (Covid-19) has caused the deaths of 951,841 people.

The American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has amended one of its policy, and recommended that a Corona virus test be conducted for those in contact with an infected person, even if they do not show symptoms of Corona.

And the US President, Donald Trump, announced that his country will have vaccines against the Corona virus sufficient for all Americans, by next April.

Trump made clear that this is an ambitious goal, as no vaccine has yet been approved.

Experts from the Trump administration had previously said that everyone was likely to get the vaccine by mid-2021.

Trump said, yesterday, at the White House: "We can assume that we will have sufficient doses of the vaccine for every American by next April."

Trump added that the distribution of vaccines should begin within 24 hours of approval, confirming his previous statements about the need to deliver 100 million vaccine doses by the end of this year.

Experts believe that a person should be vaccinated twice, two weeks apart, with the vaccine.

Trump had repeatedly talked about the possibility of approving a vaccine by the end of next October, that is, before the US elections, which will be held on the third of next November.

The number of cases of the disease has not decreased much in the United States, where daily life is still far from normal, with closed bars and companies forced to operate remotely.

In Canada, the Quebec provincial government announced a "huge and clear operation", with the deployment of police officers in bars and restaurants with the aim of ensuring that citizens comply with measures to prevent the spread of the Corona virus, and the police will impose heavy financial fines on people who refuse to wear masks.

For its part, Argentina has extended the measures imposed to confront the outbreak of the epidemic, and its borders remain closed.

In Europe, the epidemic is resuming its spread and forcing the authorities to reimpose measures unprecedented since spring.

And in Spain, the Madrid region imposed strict measures.

About 858,000 people, or 13% of the capital's population living in the poorest southern neighborhoods, can no longer leave their neighborhood for basic reasons, such as going to work, visiting a doctor, or taking their children to school.

In Europe, where the number of daily new infections is greater than the number recorded in March and April due to the increase in the number of examinations, the World Health Organization warned that the transmission rates are "worrying".

As of yesterday, two million people in north-eastern Britain were prevented from visiting between families, and a curfew was declared from 10 pm to 5 am in all entertainment venues.

The British government does not rule out resorting to a new general lockdown in all parts of Britain, in case the new measures were not enough.

In France, the city of Nice (southeast) has banned outdoor gatherings of more than 10 people, while in the Paris region, private gatherings of more than 10 people will be banned.

For the first time since the isolation measures were lifted, the number of deaths due to the virus in France rose to 265 within a week, compared to 129 deaths in the previous week.

For its part, Russia announced yesterday the registration of 6,065 new cases of the emerging coronavirus, for the first time that the daily numbers recorded exceeded 6,000 two months ago, bringing the total number of infections to one million 97,251.
