The US "Capitol Hill" report pointed out that the spread of the new coronavirus in the United States has no signs of slowing down in the short term, and with the advent of winter and more activities turning indoors, the virus seems to be more easily spread.
It has been several months since the outbreak of the epidemic, and people have become tired of epidemic prevention measures.
Health experts urge the public to increase preventive measures until vaccinated.
These precautions include wearing masks, avoiding indoor gatherings, keeping six feet away from others, and washing hands frequently.
According to reports, although the new crown virus is still spreading across the country, many governors have not closed indoor restaurants and bars.
The epidemic is still in a steep upward phase, which means that the situation may get worse.
