The COVID-19 pandemic continues to surge in much of the U.S. with states around the nation seeing a significant uptick in confirmed case numbers in recent weeks. According to a coronavirus data tracker maintained by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at Johns Hopkins University, the country has surpassed the nine-million case mark as of Friday, October 30. The latest coronavirus-related milestone comes just two weeks after the U.S. crossed the eight-million case mark earlier this month. Additionally, the JHU tracker has logged more than 229,000 American deaths resulting from COVID-19 infection, by far the most of any country in the world. Meanwhile, the situation could grow even worse with the cooling of temperatures.
