United States–The relaxation related to the Covid-19 pandemic has made the situation in the United States much worse than before as after four months such a surge of cases has been registered by the nation.
As per CNN, over 103,000 people are currently hospitalized with Covid-19 making it the first time in recent months that the numbers have reached six digits. The data was confirmed by the US Department of Health and Human Services.
It has previously said that nearly a year ago, the number of cases crossed 142,000 on January 14, 2021 and last year in September, it was 100,000 which was the last six digit figure but the concerns of Omicron, the latest variant of the Covid-19 virus, grew with the increasing number of cases.
