"March Surge: Two States Experience Sharp Increase in Coronavirus Infections"

The CDC reported that only two U.S. states had increases in coronavirus infections, with declines in 29 states and territories and stable or uncertain infections in 19 areas. A national forecast predicts up to 3,400 daily COVID hospital admissions in late April, while nearly 1.2 million U.S. residents have died of COVID-19. Health experts recommend vaccination and good hygiene practices to protect against respiratory viruses. Additionally, data suggests that nearly 1 in 4 U.S. adults and older teens had not contracted COVID-19 by late 2022, but this number may have declined since then.
