코로나 하루 70만명씩 확진…’괴물 변이’에 지구촌 다시 비명
The global spread of COVID-19 continues to accelerate.
According to data compiled by Worldometer on Wednesday, new daily cases from late July have been at 6 to 700 thousand.
This is lower than the high of 900-thousand in mid-April this year, but much higher than 200-thousand cases in late June.
The emergence and spread of the Delta variant have been viewed as major contributing factors.
The U.S. has been averaging 100-thousand new cases per day, Iran 39 thousand and India 36 thousand.
