The reduction in the number of new infections in the United States was short-lived, the total number of people infected has already reached 2 million, and states are reporting outbreaks of COVID-19, a concern for health experts.
On Wednesday, June 10, in Texas there were more than 2.5 thousand cases of infection, which was the highest rate for the day since the outbreak in the United States.
According to Bloomberg, in the expert community they seriously fear that the United States was on the verge of the second wave of coronavirus, as soon as the country began to lift restrictions after the first one. So far, only local outbreaks have been observed, but in some regions a growing number of infected people is ahead of the population testing program and nullify attempts to curb the epidemic.
“There is a new wave in some parts of the country”, – Eric Toner, senior fellow at the Johns Hopkins Health Care Center, commented on the situation.
