Original title: The new crown epidemic in the United States has once again risen, and the pressure on the medical system has surged
On November 2, local time, the “New York Times” reported that Colorado, the United States, is experiencing the worst new crown epidemic in a year. In response to the growing number of hospital admissions for the new crown, Colorado Governor Polis signed an executive order on October 31 to allow medical institutions to refer patients who need to be admitted.
According to reports, Colorado has seen a 14% increase in hospital admissions due to new coronavirus infections in the past two weeks, and daily new cases have also increased by 14% within two weeks, reaching the peak level since November 2020. The local health department said that the utilization rate of the intensive care unit in Larimer County, Colorado has reached 110%. According to reports, most hospitalized patients have not received the new crown vaccine.
In October, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged residents in areas with high transmission rates to wear masks indoors regardless of whether they have been vaccinated. In addition, there has been a surge in the number of infected people in Arizona, with daily new cases increasing by 50% in two weeks. (CCTV reporter Xu Dezhi)
