As States continue to reopen their economies and daily activities, the United States has surpassed the grim figure of 100,000 deaths due to COVID-19, more than the number of Americans killed in the Vietnam and Korean wars combined.
Most of the States in the process of reopening are trying to balance the fact of bringing back some economic normalcy while controlling the number of new infections, hospitalizations, and fatalities.
Two of the regions that have been hit the most, New York and California, are allowing barbershops and hair salons to open their doors.
We’re making progress, and we are moving forward, California Governor, Gavin Newsom said on Wednesday.
The same day, in a press conference, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed his frustration about the lack of support from Congress to fund States that have been affected the most by COVID-19.
Meanwhile, Latin America has become the epicenter of coronavirus with Brazil overcoming the United States as the country with the most daily deaths.
At the present time, there are more than 5.6 million confirmed cases around the world, with nearly 1.7 million in the United States, and more than 351,000 people have died worldwide, according to the Johns Hopkins University data dashboard.
