　　US media said that the severity of the US epidemic has exceeded many people's expectations.

According to US media analysis of data from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, on the 25th local time, there were more than 7 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the United States. On that day, the number of new cases reported in 23 states in the United States increased from the previous week. Most of them are in the American heartland and the Midwest.

　　The data also shows that California has become the first state in the United States to have more than 800,000 infected people.

Texas ranked second with more than 747,000 cases, and Florida confirmed more than 690,000 cases.

　　In addition, according to data from the Institute of Health Indicators and Evaluation of the University of Washington, COVID-19 has become the second leading cause of death in the United States after heart disease.

　　According to statistics, the number of deaths caused by the new crown epidemic in the United States has exceeded the total number of Americans who died in five wars, namely the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Iraq War, the Afghanistan War and the Gulf War.

　　Chris Morrie, director of the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, also warned that with the advent of autumn and winter, the number of new crown cases in the United States may surge.

　　Morrie said that the warning stems from two points. "First, as the number of cases in some areas declines, people are beginning to relax their vigilance." "More importantly, the seasonal problem. People stay indoors longer, which will cause more virus transmission. "

　　According to the Institute’s model, the number of deaths from the new coronavirus infection in the United States every day may soar from the current average of 765 to 3,000 in late December.
