<Anchor> The
situation is getting worse and worse in the United States day by day.
In five days, the number of confirmed cases increases by one million, and more than 2,000 people are killed every day.
In the midst of this, President Trump summoned supporters who didn't even wear masks and continued to argue against the election.

<Reporter> In the
United States, more than 200,000 coronavirus confirmed cases per day in December, there is no sign that the rapid increase in patients will subside.
CNN reported that 1 million,882 new patients have been added in just five days from the first of this month.
After the first patient was confirmed on January 20, it took 100 days to infect 1 million people, but now the spread has accelerated at a frightening rate.
More than 2,000 people died for five days in a row due to corona.
[Dr. Schley C./Minnesota Henephin Hospital: I'm sorry.
There is nothing we can do any more.
You have to call another family member telling you that someone you love is going to die.] What is
particularly desperate is that with 100,000 inpatients per day, there is a greater chance of dying in the future than now.
[Deborah Bucks/White House Corona Team Coordinator: Next week or the following week, we will see the results of the Thanksgiving move leading to a surge.
We cannot normally spend the Christmas holiday season.]
President Trump went on a campaign to support the Georgia Senate runoff vote, claiming that the presidential election was stolen and could not be surrendered.
[Trump/US President: If I really lost the presidential election, I would admit I lost.
But when elections are stolen, manipulated, and robbed, it is unacceptable.
I can't accept it.]
Trump's supporters stood close to the shoulders, rarely wearing masks.
