The US recorded 45,283 new coronavirus cases and 242 new deaths in the past 24 hours, according to Johns Hopkins University.
The tally showed that the confirmed coronavirus cases in the nation reached 2,839,436 and 129,676 deaths, it said on Sunday Meanwhile, in the “Salute to America” event marking Independence Day, President Donald Trump said on the virus that “we’ve made a lot of progress, our strategy is moving along well.” “It goes out in one area, it rears out its ugly face in another area. But we’ve learned a lot. We’ve learned how to put out the flame,” he added.
“We have the finest tasting in the world,” he said, noting that “with respect to remedies, we are now doing unbelievably well.” “We will likely have a therapeutic or vaccine solution long before the end of the year,” he said.
This comes as about 37 states across the US are witnessing a surge in new cases, with Texas, Arizona and California reporting record-high daily case increases.
