The U.S. recorded more 1 million new COVID-19 cases for the first time on Monday, once again setting another record as the number of people testing positive for the virus continues to soar.
This is this the nation’s highest one-day case count during the course of the pandemic—the previous U.S. record was 590,000 cases on Dec. 30—though some of the cases may be attributed to the holiday backlog.
The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation put out new projections last month, saying it expects a peak of 2.8 million new cases in the U.S. per day by late January. “It is much more relevant to focus on the hospitalizations as opposed to the total number of cases,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the president’s chief medical advisor, told “This Week” on Sunday.• Public transit systems in Massachusetts, New York, and St. Louis are dealing with staffing shortages as workers call out sick during the omicron surge, according to The Wall Street Journal. This has led to delays and cancellations in service.
