Coronavirus news, updates, hotspots and information for 09-23-2020
This is Coronavirus 411, the latest COVID-19 info and new hotspots… Just the facts… for September 23rd, 2020.
As the death count in the United States surpasses the 200,000 mark, an Axios/Ipsos poll shows 60% of Americans say they will not take a vaccine when one becomes available. That figure is up from 53% in August. Most said they’d wait a few months or never get one at all.
For whatever reason, younger women appear to be bearing the brunt of the UK’s second wave based on hospital admissions. That metric shows a substantial rise in women 20 to 40 admitted for serious infections since the beginning of August.
In Greece, judicial authorities were instructed to prosecute anti-mask activists, and engage fast-tracked trials and penalties with convictions of up to a year in prison. The infection rate there actually remains lower than most other EU member nations.
In America, the Veterans’ Administration has gone from seeing a steady decline in new cases over 9 weeks to a 7% spike across its health system. Active cases are still less than half of what they were July 20. But there were 189 new cases over the weekend.
Tommy DeVito, one of the original members of The Four Seasons, has died from coronavirus. He was at a Las Vegas area hospital, where he was admitted after contracting COVID-19.
