Washington: Covid epidemic in the US continues to wreak havoc. Death figures are breaking records. During the last 24 hours, 3157 people have died. So far April had the highest death toll in a single day. This figure has been 20%. Meanwhile, the American Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is revising its guidelines regarding the time period quarantined during Covid infection.
Quarantine period will depend on test results: The CDC has reduced the quarantine stay in the US from 14 days to 10. However, this will depend on the outcome and symptoms of the patient's examination. According to the report, if a patient does not have any symptoms, then he will need to stay in quarantine for only 10 days without a test. If the test report is negative, the time period has been reduced to 7 days.
More than one lakh patients in hospitals: 2603 people died on April 15. While more than 2 lakh 73 thousand people have been known so far. According to the Covid Tracking report, more than 1 lakh people are admitted in hospitals. Robert Redfield, director of the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention, says that December, January and February are the most difficult times in the history of American health services.
