With a novel coronavirus case count nearing five million, the United States now holds about a quarter of all the COVID-19 cases in the world.
According to CNN, more than,162,000 Americans have died in the pandemic so far.
As of this week, five states account for more than 40% of US infections: California, Florida, Texas, New York, and Georgia.
The pandemic shows no sign of slowing. However, that hasn't stopped the surge of school districts across the country from planning to re-open schools.
Likewise, the 80th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota intends to go ahead. Normally, the event attracts hundreds of thousands of people.
While organizers say the event will be 'scaled down,' public health officials fear the virus will run rampant in bars, parties, and other gatherings.
