NBC News: Coronavirus case increase sets new U.S. record, rising to over 77K in one day
The record-breaking tally comes in a week when a top CDC official said the agency is seeing a “distressing trend” of coronavirus case numbers “increasing in nearly 75 percent of the country.”
Just last night Donald Trump said this about coronavirus: “We’re rounding the corner. It’s going away.” It turns out we rounded a corner in the wrong direction. Cases are higher than ever, just tale a look at the chart.
US reports record 77,000+ coronavirus cases on Thursday, topping previous record in July. https://t.co/kqkiyO5rXj pic.twitter.com/Ngy73mNdY9
