Coronation records, which are broken almost daily in the United States, push hospitals to the limit of their capacity and bring about a thousand deaths a day, according to the latest morbidity data in the country.
This is while the main attention of the public is focused on the presidential elections that will be held this coming Tuesday.
Today (Friday) the 9th positive case for Corona was recorded in the United States, which constitutes almost 3% of the population.
According to Reuters, nearly 229,000 people have died after falling ill in Corona since the outbreak earlier this year.
More than a thousand people died from the virus yesterday, for the third time in the last month that such a number of deaths have been recorded in one day.
The number of Corona patients hospitalized rose more than 50% in October to more than 46,000, the highest figure since mid-August.
Today also recorded a daily record of diagnoses in 17 countries.
Among the states hardest hit are also some of the states considered "swinging" between support for Republican President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden, such as Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

The leap has revived some of the worst images of the first and most devastating wave of the virus to hit the United States, showing people in need of respiration dying alone in the hospital and the medical staff physically and mentally exhausted.
"Our hospitals cannot keep up with the rate of infection," said Utah Governor Gar Herbert, echoing the words of public health officials and experts.
"We need to understand the difficult situation I am facing."
Utah is among the 14 states that reported an increase in the death rate this month, and among the 30 states that reported a record number of cases.

"We are seeing some of the biggest outbreaks since the epidemic broke out," said Ashish Jae, dean of the School of Public Health at Brown Rhode Island University.
"Nine or ten months into this epidemic, we are not quite ready yet."
He said, "We don't have the kind of tests we need. There are a lot of big outbreaks in a lot of very different areas of the country. And of course we are moving towards autumn and winter, it makes everything very difficult."

Trump has repeatedly downplayed the virus, saying for weeks that the state is "flattening the curve," even as the number of new cases and hospitalizations soared.
He maintained his uplifting tone in the tweet even today, saying that the United States is coping much better with the epidemic than Europe.
Biden and his fellow Democrats in Congress have criticized the president and his ways of dealing with the health crisis.
Democrats in the House of Representatives have released a report condemning the Trump administration's response to the epidemic, describing it as "one of the most difficult leadership failures in American history."
According to the report, these failures have devalued at least six million Americans and left millions more unemployed.

"The virus is a global blow, but it was an American fiasco that caused the deaths of more people in the United States than in any other country," the 71-page report by the House of Representatives' Democratic subcommittee on the Corona crisis said.
The report found that investigators have identified more than 60 cases in which Trump administration officials have dismissed the views of leading scientists to advance the president's political interests.
"The fiasco has killed many people."

The subcommittee has found more than four billion dollars suspected of being used for fraud in programs that help small businesses.
The commission even accused the administration of diverting funding to companies with political ties.
"The administration's response to the economic crisis has benefited larger companies and wealthier Americans, leaving behind many underprivileged communities and small businesses," the report said.
After being hospitalized in early October, Trump returned to the big campaign rallies that draw thousands of supporters crowded together, many of them without masks.
The Trump campaign has argued that the rallies are safe and that they encourage masking and social alienation.
A CNN investigation found that 14 of the 17 counties surveyed showed an increased rate of new corona cases, about a month after hosting a Trump rally.
