Covid hospitalizations hit record high of 132,646 and cases triple over the past two weeks
Covid cases in the US have tripled over the past two weeks, up to over 700,000 per day, as the nation continues to suffer record surge. Deaths have not followed the same trend, though, only increasing 10% with the CDC chief saying almost all are among people with four or more comorbidities.
On average, 130,000 Americans are hospitalized with Covid every day, though many people are likely just testing positive for Covid when going in for treatment on something else. Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla says the virus will likely be around for the next decade, but his company's booster shots will be able to 'control' the pandemic. The variant is already showing signs of burning out in England and Denmark, though, a positive sign for the U.S. going forward.
