For the first time during the coronavirus pandemic, the United States recorded more than 4,000 virus-related deaths in one day. This is the third day in a row that the country has seen its own one-day deaths high – this time 4,085 Americans lost their lives in just 24 hours, according to figures from pandemic trackers at Johns Hopkins University. By comparison, several countries – such as Japan, Australia and South Korea – recorded far fewer than 4,000 deaths throughout the pandemic. An additional 274,703 U.S. COVID-19 cases were recorded on the same day as the pandemic accelerated across the country. In Arizona, one in 119 people tested positive this week, which the state surveyed into what health officials called the latest “hot spot in the world” for the virus.
