US, WASHINGTON (ORDO NEWS) — Infectious diseases expert Anthony Fosi noted that the United States may face a big problem: COVID-19 will affect millions of people, there will be at least 100 thousand deaths.
The United States recently surpassed China and Italy in the number of cases. Now the country has 164 thousand cases of infection as of the end of March 30. If serious and tough measures to combat coronavirus are not taken further, the number of cases will definitely increase to a million.
Hospitals in some cities, such as New York, have a shortage of beds. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio believes half of the city is likely to be infected. Where people will be treated is not entirely clear.
Local authorities are predicting serious problems that cannot be dealt with at an advanced stage. The only way out is to strengthen quarantine measures, as China did.
