The U.S. recorded 100,000 COVID-19 cases Wednesday afternoon and remains the country with the most confirmed cases than any other country in the world, according to data from the Center of System Science and Engineering from John Hopkins University.
The center says there has been 100,047 deaths from the novel coronavirus recorded as the number of confirmed cases nears 1.7 million.
Dr. Anthony Fauci warned that states should not go “leapfrogging” over reopening guidelines.
A second wave of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States “could happen” but is “not inevitable,” White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Wednesday.
The U.S. can prevent another wave of Covid-19 as long as states reopen “correctly,” Fauci said Wednesday morning in an interview on CNN. “Don’t start leapfrogging over the recommendations of some of the guidelines because that’s really tempting fate and asking for trouble.”
