CDC ‘deeply concerned’ about rising Covid cases as vaccinations accelerate theguardian.com/us-news/2021/m…
Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said at a White House briefing that the most recent weekly average shows a 7% increase in infections in the US from the previous week, at about 57,000 cases a day.
New hospitalizations have slightly increased, too.
“I remain deeply concerned about this trajectory. Please, take this moment very seriously,” Walensky said.
Nearly half the population has received at least one vaccine dose but residents of the capital and other regions face strict new curbs.
