"This all happened 9 months B 4 an election??" The number in Covid 19 stands for 2019, the year it was discovered. Trump lost our chance to stop it in Feb, 9 months B4 the election. There's a New No. 3 in Cases; and a US Streak Continues India overtakes Russia, and US sets record for cases on 27th straight day By Newser Editors, Newser Staff Posted Jul 6, 2020 7:11 AM CDT newser.com ( Trump has let us become the shittiest shithole in the WORLD! ) (NEWSER) – Cases of COVID-19 continued to rise in India over the weekend, resulting in an unwanted distinction for the nation of more than 1.3 billion people. It just passed Russia—in total numbers, anyway, not per capita—to take over the third spot in confirmed cases. The ranking as of Monday morning, per Johns Hopkins: US: 2.88 million Brazil: 1.6 million India: 697,000 Russia: 686,000 Peru: 302,000 India, which began lifting restrictions last month, registered more than 24,000 new cases in the last 24 hours, reports the BBC, with much of the surge coming from southern states. One piece of better news: India's mortality rate is roughly half that of the rest of the world, 2.4% vs. 4.7%, though the reasons for that aren't clear. Its death toll of 19,693 is eighth in the world, well below that of the US, whose figure is nearing 130,000. Across the US, the rolling seven-day average of new cases set a record for the 27th consecutive day on Sunday, reports the Washington Post. The US logged more than 43,000 cases, with Arizona and Nevada reporting their highest related hospitalizations to date. (Read more India stories.)
