The US reported on Friday over 900,000 deaths due to Omicron, while the daily number of cases is still on the rise.
COVID-19 infections account for 318,727 new infections reported on average each day, with 40% of the peak, according to Reuters’ latest COVID Tracker, released this Saturday.
The US tops the world in the daily average number of new deaths recorded, accounting for one in every 4 deaths reported worldwide each day, according to the same source.
Recently, the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has urged citizens to wear masks that provide the most protection to prevent the COVID-19 infection.
US President Joe Biden said that the federal government plans to make “high-quality masks” available to Americans for free, in a move to contain the virus.
Additionally, the White House said Biden’s government will begin shipping 500 million COVID-19 tests to citizens in late January, free of charge.
