Crown on the rise in the US Midwest. Here’s what’s happening throughout the region

The epidemic in the United States crown epicenter is a moving target. In the spring it was New York City. Then Florida, Texas and California had hotspot. And now, with autumn approaching, the outbreak has a new location: the Midwest. Daily crown cases and deaths tend to bottom at national level after this top summer. There were about 34,000 new cases of Corona and about 600 deaths to 31. August is reduced by approximately 12% and 30%, compared to two weeks ago. But the Midwest is an exception to the trend. And ‘the only region of the country, if one day each in almost increase in the state and a bit’ in the area, such as the Dakota and Iowa, which increases dramatically. “It ‘was just a matter of time,” says Dr. Leana Wen, professor of public health at George Washington University, who previously was Baltimore’s health commissioner. “Basically, we’re playing Whac-A-Mole. Part of the land is a hotspot. We suppress the position. But the wave then moves to another part of the country.” It took months for the virus to pass from densely populated, urban transport hub, the most sparsely populated rural communities. Now is a combination of tourism, businesses reopened and back to school seem the virus so that the root in the Midwest to take. “We had a couple of local outbreaks, but this is our first real evidence of a strong spread of the community,” says Victor Huber, a virologist at the University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine. “Once the virus is in this population and may infect, you will go ahead and do it.” Not seen many Midwest states anywhere near, like other parts of the country as many cases crown. For example, North and South Dakota, experiencing two states peaks, at the time, only about 12,000 to 14,000 cases are reported or when the pandemic started a small fraction of the 230,000 recorded in New York City. But count of cases every day in increasing Dakota and Iowa double-digit percentage compared to two weeks ago. In the last week of August, five Midwestern states miserable record single day for new cases: North Dakota (374), Iowa (2681), Minnesota (1154), South Dakota (623) and Kansas (1019). “We obviously did not the population density [from places like New York], but in smaller towns … You have many options, with people often interact,” says Huber. The proportion of Corona test positive again next increase in many areas. In South Dakota, about 17% of the tests came back positive results by September 1, compared to an average of about 8% in the last months of the pandemic during the week. In Iowa, about 11% tested positive for positive rates in the single digits remained most of the summer. “The World Health Organization is clear that the test positivity rate needs less than 5%” to re-open for a surface, said Wen. In areas where the positive rates are well above that Wen says that the virus can spread to be trapped and isolated for too fast in the event. Huber says it is never turned off completely, some Midwestern states, while others have opened too quickly. Many companies and tourist destinations are now fully open, which increases the probability of spread. A popular motorcycle rally held in Sturgis, S.D. from 7 to 16 August has been linked to nearly 250 cases the crown at least 10 states, South Dakota Rapid City Journal reports so far. Universities are likely to play a role, too. Several Midwestern campus have already endured significant outbreaks of crown collected, according to the New York Times. There are nearly 500 cases at the University of Notre Dame, started in Indiana; nearly 450 at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; more than 300 at Iowa State University; and more than 200 at the University of North Dakota, the University of Michigan and Illinois State University. (Cases that occur on college campuses are often counted in the country of the student’s home rather than a state school, but especially for public schools, both of which are often the same.) A number of Crown outbreaks in the Midwest processing plants meat also made headlines this spring, in an Iowa Tyson plant including one that more than 500. August 31, sickened nearly 5,000 people in Nebraska and 3,600 people in Iowa related to a meat processing plant blast the whole pandemic was disgusted was, according to the Midwest Center for Investigative reporting data. to achieve the increase in check, says Wen Midwest States should test and monitoring capabilities of cases, increasing mandates force mask ban from public places of refreshment indoors and restrictions on meetings internal. “We are at the beginning of this epidemic. Now we have seen what is effective in other places,” he says. “We know what works. Now it’s time to implement it.”
