Today, the United States recorded its 11 millionth COVID-19 case. According to Johns Hopkins University, as of this writing, there have been 11,003,469 COVID-19 cases in this country along with 246,073 deaths for a mortality rate of 2.2%.
What is most disturbing of all is that it took only six days to go from 10 million COVID-19 cases to 11 million COVID-19 cases. Keep in mind that the first COVID-19 case was recorded on January 20th - exactly 300 days ago.
Exacerbating matters is President Trump's refusal to concede defeat and grant access vital COVID data to President-elect Biden although they are doing to their best to work around Trump's obstinance by communicating with state governors, the scientific community and the private sector. However, these efforts won't stop the escalation of COVID-19 cases.
The longer Trump remains in office the more COVID=19 cases we will get.
The longer Trump remains in office the worse things will become.
January 20, 2021 cannot come soon enough.
There are 66 days to go. We could have 20 million COVID-19 cases by then.
