By contrast, this is the situation in the US on November 30

The total number of coronavirus cases in the United States for November surpassed four million on Saturday, more than double the record set in October of 1.9 million cases. And the sharp escalation is likely to continue — or grow even steeper.

More than 170,000 people in the United States are now testing positive on an average day. More than 1.1 million people tested positive in the past week alone. The country’s overall total, from the start of the pandemic, is over 13 million infections — by far the world’s largest outbreak.

And worldwide  

Corona Virus Cases:  64,281,440   

Deaths:  1, 488,831

Recoveries:  44,533,715
