22 October 2020The United States in the last 24 hours has recorded a new world record of deaths from coronavirus:

1,237 people died today

, exceeding 1,200 for the first time since August.



This is what emerges from the analysis of the data carried out by Reuters, which notes

over 222 thousand deaths since the beginning of the pandemic

, the highest number in the world.

Compared to the October average of about 700 deaths per day, this is a strong growth that worries the American scientific community.



In the same way

, infections also grow

.

For the third consecutive day, the United States reported over 60,000 new infections in 24 hours, bringing the total to over 8.3 million.

The figure partly reflects an increase in testing in some states.



Even the two challengers at the 2020 US presidential elections have to deal with the virus.

Trump, and part of his family, have already contracted the coronavirus while Democratic White House candidate Joe Biden tested negative ahead of the presidential debate in Nashville against the tycoon.
