The dizzying number of victims occurs when the pandemic extends to the options that were saved from the beginning.

The University of Notre Dame suspended “all football-related activities” after seven players were tested for the virus.
The death toll in the United States as a result of the coronavirus pandemic exceeded 200,000 on Tuesday, as the first day of autumn raised doubts about what will come.
More deaths have been reported in the United States than in any other country, and reports of new coronavirus cases have been higher in the United States and parts of Europe in recent days, suggesting a new phase of the crisis.
Some estimated in March that fewer than 500 would die from the pandemic. “More than 60,000,” predicted the most sensible U. S. infectious disease authority in April. “Everywhere, 75,000, 80,000 to 100,000 people,” President Trump said in May.
But even though the balance sheet has gone from confusing estimates to bloody realities, the magnitude remains difficult to understand: more than 200,000 deaths is a massive loss, nearly twice and a portion of the number of US service members. in Vietnam and the Korean Wars, obscuring the accumulation of individual tragedies: a single running mother, a famous pitcher, a D-Day veteran, an inseparable couple and a troubadour on the picket line.
Now that another 200,000 people have died, anything the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention discussed in March in internal documents, such as low diversity for the worst-case situation, infectious disease experts are struggling to figure out how the pandemic could evolve in the coming months. .
Fewer new cases have been detected a week since a summer outbreak in the south and west peaked last July, but the country’s workload is developing again, especially in central states such as Wisconsin, Montana, and North Dakota. basically affected coastal urban areas. The virus is spreading more widely now, in rural communities and university towns. The advent of flu season and the prospect of cooler otoñal air, probably to send many others inside, have increased fears about what they might bring in the coming months.
Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the country’s leading infectious disease specialist, said it implies that the country is entering the colder months without controlling the virus. The country averages around 40,000 new instances per day founded on an average of seven days. according to a Times database.
“These are the things that worry me as we move toward October, November, and December,” Dr. Fauci said Tuesday on CNN. “I’d like to see us do this at such a low point that when you have the inevitable cases, you can take care of them. “
Trfinishs can be temporarily replaced. In early April, about 800 people died each day, but this temporarily increased. For two weeks, from April 13 to 27, daily deaths estimated at an average of seven days remained in more than 2000. recently reported in the country every day and every day. Some epidemiologists say the death toll can rise to 300,000 until the end of the year in the United States.
Painful milestones have occurred temporarily: 50,000 deaths in April, 100,000 in May, and now 200,000, even when some states, such as Arizona, have demonstrated how temporary instances and deaths can minimize by taking mitigation efforts.
The United States has the highest total number of deaths in the world, a handful of countries in Europe and Latin America have recorded more deaths consistent with the capita.
However, the even higher number of deaths in the United States stands in sharp contrast to mortality in other high-income countries. Italy, once at the centre of the pandemic, reported 17 deaths on Monday; Germany reported 10 deaths on the same day, and in the United States that day, 428 more people died from the virus.
In recent days, countries that have reported fewer cases this summer have noticed the accumulation of the virus. Worldwide, at least 73 countries saw an increase in the number of cases recently detected on Sunday as scientists rush for a vaccine and new treatments.
