Coronavirus updates: U.S. tops 116,000 cases, another record, as health officials worry people are...

Source: Washington Post

Another day, another record shattered. The United States reported 116,707 new coronavirus infections Thursday, as 20 states saw their highest daily counts, and the number of fatalities nationwide exceeded 1,000 for the third consecutive day.

A second day of six-figure case counts pushed the total number of infections reported in the United States to nearly 9.6 million Thursday, according to data tracked by The Washington Post. At least 234,000 fatalities have been reported to date.

No region of the country is being spared from the onslaught: The 20 states reporting record single-day increases Thursday span New England, the Midwest, the Great Plains and the Pacific Northwest. Those witnessing the most dramatic increases over the past week include Maine, Iowa, Colorado, Minnesota and Nebraska.

But nowhere looked more bleak than North Dakota, which broke records for the number of new infections and fatalities reported in a single day, as well as the number of hospitalized coronavirus patients.

Adjusted for its population, North Dakota has reported more coronavirus-related deaths over the past week than has any other state, and its seven-day average for both new cases and fatalities also set records Thursday.

A poll worker in Missouri tested positive for the novel coronavirus, ignored instructions to self-isolate, worked on Election Day and has died, according to officials in St. Charles County.

Twitter permanently suspended former White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon’s @WarRoomPandemic account Thursday after he posted a clip of himself saying that Trump — if reelected — should eliminate Anthony S. Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious-disease expert, and FBI Director Christopher A. Wray by means of medieval execution.

Can we all agree that Bannon is a flaming asshole for tweeting that?

Amid surging cases and hospitalizations, Wisconsin’s top health officer resigned, citing the pressure of the job, among other factors. Stephanie Smiley, who served on an interim basis since May, is the second top Wisconsin health official to resign during the pandemic.

An Associated Press analysis found that 93 percent of U.S. counties with the highest number of new coronavirus cases per capita voted to reelect President Trump.

Adults testing positive for the coronavirus were almost twice as likely to report having gone into workplaces in person or into a school in the previous two weeks than those who tested negative, according to a new study published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Those working from home were more likely to be White and college-educated and to earn more than $75,000 a year.
