After Italy, it is now said that New York is the worst hit than any other province in USA. Just yesterday night, the total count of USA has risen up from 88,000 to 92,000.
And the number of deaths were around 1,400. By this morning, this has gone above the mark of 1,00,000 cases positive for the virus and total number of deaths around 1,500.
On Friday morning, USA topped the list in the number of cases and stood higher than Italy and China. It has made a record of being the first country to record a mark of 1 lakh Coronavirus cases.
US President Donald Trump spoke on this and reiterated the protection measures that they are taking to control the spread as much as possible.
Defense Production Act was invoked. This is used only in very rare instances. So by this we can understand the gravity of the situation in USA.
This is an act in which the Defense Army will start constructing hospitals in just under few minutes and hours for even more than 1,000 beds capacity. By increasing the beds and isolation wards, the number of deaths can be decreased.
