Coronavirus (COVID-19) has caused outrage in the US. According to a tracker maintained by Johns Hopkins University, the number of people infected with the coronavirus has crossed 100,000. The rate of how fast the coronavirus is spreading in the US can be gauged from the fact that there have been 18,000 new cases and 345 people have died in the last 24 hours. At the same time, the total number of people killed in the coronavirus in the US has crossed 1,500.

According to a tracker maintained by Johns Hopkins University, there have been 100,717 cases of coronavirus in the US. At the same time, 1,544 people have died due to this deadly virus. The highest number of cases of coronavirus in the world are now in the US and the number of infected people is continuously increasing. On the other hand, the situation in Italy is not coming under control. In the last 24 hours, 969 people have died due to Covid-19. 

A situation like Wuhan city of China is being seen in New York. This region of America is the most affected. New York accounts for more than half of the total infected cases in the US. It is being told that there is also a shortage of oxygen, catheter and medicines in New York hospitals. 

According to a Times report, many US doctors have feared that if the situation in New York remains uncontrollable, there could soon be a more serious situation than in Wuhan, China. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has asked the country's automobile companies General Motors and Ford to make ventilator machines instead of manufacturing vehicles. Simultaneously, Trump has extended a helping hand to countries around the world facing a shortage of ventilators. Trump said that if a country needs a ventilator, the US can deliver it.
