As a Delta Wave Peaks in Some States, Others Brace for What’s Next

[andhra_jp]

The Delta surge appears to have peaked in Florida but cases and hospitalizations have been rising in many other states including Kentucky and North Carolina

Cases in some U.S. states, including Kentucky and West Virginia, have recently been on the upswing, threatening to mute the effect of declines in Florida and elsewhere. 

Cases are also rising in parts of the Midwest. 

Some states where cases surged most dramatically appear to be experiencing a break in the storm. 
Arkansas, Mississippi and Missouri have recently been adding new cases at a slower clip than in July, for example

“What was in the South is now going to spread due north and then west,” said Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine.

In Tennessee, new hospital admissions are up almost 11% from the prior week to an average of more than 400 admissions a day, federal data show, surpassing the peak of the winter surge

“I think the wave that hit Florida, Arkansas and others, we’re just starting to see it,” said Alex Jahangir, an orthopedic surgeon and chair of the Covid-19 task force in Nashville.

Some public-health experts say they believe the U.K.’s experience with Covid-19 cases during its Delta-fueled wave is reason for caution. 
The seven-day average in U.K. cases in July plummeted from a peak of around 48,000 cases a day to under 26,000 later that month, only to start climbing again. 
By late last month the average had reached about 35,000, national data show.

Bruh, NO one is testing what variant you have. How do they know, which variant?

All this media is worst than our own media in India. 

Not sure, what to believe anymore.
