Just short of 100,000, US sets new coronavirus case record
The United States records its worst ever daily coronavirus caseload — 99,660, according to Johns Hopkins University.
There were 1,112 deaths yesterday, according to the same tally.
More than 9.4 million people have been infected and 233,000 have died in the US since the disease was first detected in China late last year.
Infection rates have surged to record highs across the country since last month, especially in the north and the Midwest.
