KEY POINTS
More than 68,500 are hospitalized with Covid-19 across the country, more than at any other point during the pandemic, according to data from the COVID Tracking Project.
The seven-day average of daily new cases has hit a fresh record everyday for at least the past ten days, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.
The surge is pushing hospitals in some parts of the country, particularly the Midwest and Western U.S., to their limits.
