New York's death toll hits new high

New York state, the epicentre of United State of America’s coronavirus crisis, set another single-day record of Covid-19 deaths, as veteran doctors and nurses voiced astonishment at the speed with which patients were deteriorating and dying, Reuters reported.
The number of known coronavirus infections in New York state alone approached 151,000+ (Further detail), even as authorities warned that the official death tally may understate the true number because it omits those who have perished at home.
Nearly 435,000+ (Further detail) cases were confirmed in the United States, including more than 14,700+ deaths. For the second straight day the virus killed at least 1,900 in a 24-hour period.
