States like Florida are experiencing rates of infection not seen since April

The United States recorded 40,000 coronavirus infections a day on Thursday, according to figures from Johns Hopkins University (JHU).

Recently, infections and hospitalizations have caused Texas, Florida, and Arizona to temporarily stop opening new plans.

The Texas Governor ordered the bar to close and announce Other "targeted measures" on Friday to bring the infection down

Florida announced that it is suspending alcohol at the bar

The previous peak of JHU at 36,400 occurred on April 24th with little testing.

The United States has 2.4 million people infected and 122,370 more dead than other countries.

While the increase in the number of daily patients recorded was reduced to increase the test But the positive test rates in some areas also increased.

Public health officials in the United States estimate that the actual number of cases is 10 times more likely than the reported numbers.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) said that up to 20 million Americans may be infected with coronavirus. The assessment is based on blood samples collected from all over the country that are tested for antibodies to the virus.

CDC's Chief Robert Redfield said the increase in the case was driven by young people who test positive, especially in the southern and western parts of the United States.

Trump executives have stressed that the majority of the country's situation is stable.

The worst attack in the United States

Texas, at the forefront of the movement to end lock measures, saw thousands of new cases urging Republican governor Greg Abbott to call for a pause to re-open on Friday.

He announced that he was closing the bar, stopped rafting on the river and ordered the restaurant back to 50% capacity to try to stop the outbreak.

"It is clear that the increase in cases mainly comes from certain types of activities, including the processing that is gathered in the bar," he said in a statement.

Texas confirmed 5,996 new cases on Thursday, while another 47 were reported, the highest daily deaths for a month.

In his first coronavirus briefing in more than two months, Vice President Mike Pence said the White House supports measures taken by Texas and calls on people in affected states to follow official recommendations.

On Friday, Florida broke its own daily record for new infections. The previous record was 5,508 reported on Wednesday. The state currently has 122,960 recorded patients and 3,366 deaths.

Government officials announced that alcohol was suspended in bars throughout the state. However, it's unclear how the new measures will affect restaurants serving alcoholic beverages, the Miami Herald reports.

Previously, the governor of Florida said there were no plans to re-open it step by step. "We are where we are. I am not saying that we are going to go to the next step," Ron de Santis told reporters.

Arizona becomes the center of the crisis once again. Disease tracking tools say the state "Loss of epidemic control" The Washington Post reports. Governor Doug Dusey, who gave the business a "green light" to reopen. Now, residents in Arizona say that "Safe at home"

The light is at "yellow," said Gov Ducey on Thursday. "I ask the Arizonans to proceed with caution to slow down to see both ways."

Other states, including Alabama, California, Idaho, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Wyoming, have seen a daily increase in the number of people confirmed this week.

New York, New Jersey and Connecticut say they will ask people to travel from eight states - Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Utah - to secede. For 14 days

Governor Gavin Newsom says the state has tested more than a million times in the past two weeks, with about 5% returning to positive. Newsom wears a mask to wear in public.

The University of Washington estimates that 180,000 people will die within October, or 146,000 if 95% of Americans wear masks.

It is reported that the European Union is considering banning US citizens from entering the group, as it will consider ways to open external borders again.

How the United States responded to the pandemic?

The federal system of the United States allows the Free State to devise solutions to their own problems and policies to raise concerns - even at the national health crisis.

The governor is therefore responsible for different levels of blocking to eliminate the spread of Covid-19.

The patchwork countermeasures have been marked by conflicts between the Trump administration and some governors.

Back in March, President Trump made it clear that he wanted to see America open a new business "soon".

Faced with rising unemployment and the economic crisis just a few months before the elections in November, he tweeted at the time: "We can't let the treatment get worse than the problem itself."

The president has gone as far as endorsing street protests with strict premiere measures in many states.

Then, in April, President Trump revealed guidelines for the governor to open the state's economy.

The guidelines for "opening America again" summarize the third step for the state to slowly release their locks.

Trump promised the governor that they would manage the process themselves with help from the federal government.
