While fitness officials have warned that demonstrations over the next Labor Day weekend in the United States may only fuel the spread of the coronavirus, political observers are largely tracking attitudes toward the virus in the Midwest, where Donald Trump and Joe Biden are engaged in combat that May only the presidential election.
Two new national polls released Wednesday revealed that Trump retained between 40% and 41% of the electorate, in the narrow band he has maintained since taking office, even as the death toll shown by Covid-19 in the United States approaches 200,000.

But in Midwest states like Iowa and Minnesota, in particular, new warnings about the coronavirus are heard as presidential elections enter their final weeks and absente voting begins.
“We can’t further increase the network’s broadcast this Labor Day weekend, because if it happens, what comes next will be worse,” Minnesota Health Commissioner Jan Malcolm told MPR News on Monday. “For some time now, I feel like we’re walking on the edge of a cliff. “
A white house coronavirus working group this week sent a report to Iowa fitness officials warning that the state has the case rate in the United States, according to the Des Moines Registry.
The state recorded more than 1,000 Covid-19 deaths, and more than 65,000 showed cases of affected communities disproportionately connected to regional packing plants.
Biden was scheduled to speak Wednesday about Trump’s handling of the pandemic, and on Thursday, the former vice president planned to hold a network assembly in Kenosha, Wisconsin, the site of protests following the Jacob Blake shooting through an officer. of white police last month.
While Trump’s approval of coronavirus control has been in its 30s for months, the pandemic may not have replaced the fundamental dynamics of the election, pollsters have found in key states like Pennsylvania.
But Republicans politically aligned with Trump are following suit by minimizing the virus.
Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, who last week was granted a position to speak at high-time hearing at the Republican National Convention to help her succeed in a close bid for re-election, said Monday that she is “very skeptical” about the official death toll. .
In statements reported through the Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier, Ernst made a false statement about coronavirus statistics that infectious disease Anthony Fauci, a key member of the White House Coronavirus Working Group, has sought to demystify.
After the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published a report last week stating that another 140,000 people who died from Covid-19 also had an indexed cause of death at one time, Fauci went to ABC News’ Good Morning America to point out that all more than 180,000 coronavirus deaths in the United States are “real deaths due to Covid-19. “
But Ernst amplified a denied interpretation of the CDC report, saying, “They think there may be only 10,000 or fewer deaths that were singularly Covid-19. I’m literally curious. It would be nice to know.
Health officials have warned that expressions of skepticism about the coronavirus through Trump and other politicians can simply create a sense of complacency and jeopardize public fitness, that is, the fitness of the elderly and in a different vulnerable way. Iowa is among the 3 most sensitive states for the proportion of active electorate over the age of 65.
In a call to the convention this week with the governors, whose recording was received through The Associated Press, Fauci warned that Hard Labor Day weekend would be key to whether the United States is getting a “exit” to involve the coronavirus right now. Faauci said it was vital to avoid a buildup of coronavirus cases like those noticed after Memorial Day and the Fourth of July vacation when other people accumulated in events, without masks, after months of movement restrictions.
In an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday, Fauci said there may be a vaccine that opposes U. S. coronavirus until November or December of this year.
On the threat of promising a vaccine too soon, Dr. Fauci: “I think we will know until the end of this year, in November or December, that we have an effective vaccine. And I’m cautiously optimistic, yet you can never be assured when it comes to vaccines. “#AMRstaff
