The corona plague continues to spread and strike the world.

While in some countries control of the virus seems to have been achieved, even with temporarily, in other places it seems that the corona virus has gone out of control.

Leading the gap

In the United States, as of today (Friday) at noon, the number of verified corona patients since the outbreak of the plague in the country stands at 12,070,712 people and the number of people who have died stands at 258,333 people.

The virus in the US continues to spread at a dizzying pace when only on Tuesday this week a negative record of coronary mortality was broken. On Tuesday this week 1,707 people died within a day and the number of patients identified that day stood at more than 150,000 verified patients. The number of patients found per day continued to rise and yesterday stood at a new record of 185,759 verified per day.

As part of an effort to control the outbreak in the country, the Centers for Disease Prevention and Distribution has issued a directive recommending citizens not to travel during Thanksgiving and also stressed that it is recommended not to meet with people other than the people sharing the same living space.

Joins the top of the table

Mexico has become the fourth country in the world, along with the United States, India and China, whose death toll from the corona virus has crossed the 100,000 mark. The death toll in Mexico has reached 100,104 people who have been verified by the authorities as having contracted the corona virus.

This negative landmark of Mexico came after less than a week since Mexico noted that the total number of verified patients in the country has crossed the one million million mark.

To date, there are 1,019,543 virus-infected patients in Mexico, of whom 768,361 have recovered.

The Russians are struggling with shortages

Russian media report that some hospitals in the country have a severe shortage of drugs designed to treat patients in Corona.

Russia ranks fifth and questionable in terms of overall number of patients and “lags” behind just behind the US, India, Brazil and France with 2,015,608 verified corona patients.

In Russia the reports suggest that the shortage is due to a long and ongoing struggle in the second wave of corona in the country as well as due to the high demand for medicines and medical equipment caused due to the great panic in the public.

According to some reports, most hospitals outside the Moscow region are on the verge of breaking point.

Dreaming of Christmas

In the UK, which among European countries suffers from the highest mortality rates as a result of the corona virus, the day transmits optimism.

The British Minister of Health, Matt Hancock, said today that there may be a wave of easing of guidelines in the UK ahead of the holiday season in general and towards Christmas in particular, as morbidity levels in the country have dropped due to the closures and restrictions imposed.  

In the UK there are currently 1,453,256 people identified as having been identified as coronavirus and the death toll from the virus is 53,775.

Control the peak of morbidity

India and Brazil, respectively in second and third place in the number of corona general patients, continue to suffer from a fairly widespread morbidity sickness and it seems that the road to gaining control of the plague is still a long way off.

In India there are currently 9,004,365 people identified as verified blues in Corona and the death toll from the virus stands at 132,202 people.

In Brazil, according to local government publications, there are 5,983,089 verified patients and the death toll from the virus is 168,141 people.

In Turkey today there was a record death rate of about 141 people who died across the country from corona disease.

More than 5,000 have been infected with the virus while the government is struggling to decide on comprehensive measures against the disease.
