More than a million people have died from the coronavirus in the United States. However, since January 2021, the number of corona deaths has fallen by 95 percent and the number of hospital admissions by almost 91 percent, the government said. “The number of corona deaths worldwide is at its lowest since the beginning of the pandemic.”
According to the government, 270 million US citizens have received at least one dose of vaccine to protect against the corona virus. “We are no longer in the same phase of the pandemic as when the commitments were put into effect,” it said. The measures to contain the pandemic and, above all, the obligation to vaccinate had triggered a heated political debate in the USA.
