Coronavirus is wreaking havoc across the globe. The United States is the worst-hit nation by the corona pandemic. According to Johns Hopkins University, the nation has recorded more than 20 million cases of Covid-19.

The New Year brought another grim milestone underlining the country's struggle to quell the virus. The nation has so far registered 20,007,149 cases and 346,408 deaths in the pandemic. With the addition of new death cases, it has become the country, which by far the highest official number of cases and the highest death toll. On Wednesday alone, more than 3,900 people died of Covid-19 in the US, a new daily record, and experts believe the worst is yet to come as health care workers brace for a surge in cases and deaths after holiday gatherings. 

To combat the virus, US has begun a mass campaign of vaccinations and nearly 2.8 million people have already received their first dose, a figure well behind the 20 million inoculations that the administration of President Donald Trump promised by the end of the year. Meanwhile, the global tally of coronavirus cases stands at 84,354,341. While 59,622,576 have recovered, 1,834,467 have died so far.
