The USA needs to concentrate on the issue at hand to end the spread of this virus. It is not the flu and has very different impacts on the human body.

The graph is a Wikipedia record of new cases of the disease COVID-19 resulting from the infection of SARS-CoV-2.

Wikipedia obtains it's data from the WHO (click here) which actually has current new infections higher. The WHO updates these numbers frequently, so the data at Wikipedia may be a few hours old. Both reportings are from May 25th, but, the exact hour of the Wikipedia reporting could be different. The official number is from the WHO Situation Report (click here).

I stated early on in following the disease spread the sawtooth pattern of the graph was due to the lack of central leadership. That pattern continues today and this is a situation report numbered 126.

On May 25th the USA recorded 24,151 new cases. This must not continue.
