(Fighting New Coronary Pneumonia) The cumulative number of confirmed cases of new crown in the United States exceeds 40 million

  China News Service, Washington, September 7 (Reporter Chen Mengtong) The cumulative number of confirmed cases of the new crown in the United States exceeded 40 million on September 6.

  According to data from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, as of 22:00 on the 6th, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new crown in the United States has exceeded 40.018 million, and the cumulative number of deaths has been 649,000.

Among them, California (4.22 million), Texas (3.7 million), Florida (3.33 million) and New York State (2.3 million) ranked the four states with the largest number of confirmed cases.

  Due to factors such as the spread of the new crown mutant virus delta strain and the slowdown in vaccination, the United States has entered the fourth wave of epidemic rebound from early July, and the epidemic curve has not yet "topped".

  Judging from the death case data, the epidemic situation in the southern and northern parts of the United States presents a completely different picture.

Of the 14 states with the highest death rates in the first week of September, only Nevada, Oregon, and Wyoming are not southern states.

  "Almost every time people underestimate the virus and relax their vigilance, the number of deaths will surge." The Washington Post pointed out that in March 2020, American medical experts predicted that the number of new crown deaths in the United States would be around 550,000 at most.

In the face of more than 640,000 deaths from the new crown, many experts now believe that the number of deaths has not reached the peak.

  In the past 28 days, Florida is the state with the largest increase in the number of infections and deaths in the United States, with these two figures reaching 583,000 and 6,629 respectively.

At the end of August, the average number of new cases in a single day in the state exceeded 22,000, and it still reached 19,000 at the beginning of September.

  Florida Governor DeSantis has a tough policy stance against the "mask order".

Despite opposition from legal proceedings and education circles, he still tried to prohibit the implementation of the "mask order" in Florida campuses.

  A statistical data released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in early September showed that the proportion of unvaccinated adolescents who were hospitalized for COVID-19 infection was 10 times that of adolescents who had completed the vaccination.

In the context of the Biden administration's efforts to promote the full resumption of schools across the United States, the surge in infection rates in some areas of the United States after the beginning of school has also caused social concerns.

  For example, in Washington, the capital of the United States, although the number of new confirmed cases in the past month has been controlled below 5,000, Mayor Bowser still faces pressure from public opinion.

As Washington requires students to return to school to resume classes, some congressmen and parent associations have recently continued to require local students to provide online class options.

  In the absence of significant improvement in the core data of the epidemic, major professional sports events in the United States successively greeted fans with 100% full ticket sales in the fall.

This includes the U.S. Tennis Open, the U.S. College Rugby League, and the U.S. Professional Rugby League, which opened on August 30.

  The data model of the Institute of Health Indicators and Evaluation of the University of Washington predicts that under the premise that the vaccination volume maintains a steady increase and no other mutant strains appear, the number of deaths in the United States may increase by 116,000 to 210,000 before December 1st. .

  The researcher of the Institute Mukdad warned that the next three months will be difficult for the United States, because intensive care beds in 44 states are facing tremendous pressure from a surge in cases.

  Meyers, a medical expert at the University of Texas, said that although the delta strain may spread differently in different parts of the world, many experiences in the United States reflect the level of vaccination and the effectiveness of compliance with epidemic prevention measures.

These experiences also show that as long as preventive measures are taken, the rebound of the epidemic and deaths can be controlled.

  According to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as of the 6th, 206 million people in the United States have received at least one dose of the new crown vaccine, accounting for approximately 62.3% of the total population.
