“If these trends continue to go up, I think this wave could continue through the winter," epidemiologist Loren Lipworth said.
The United States passed a grim milestone Thursday, exceeding 4 million confirmed coronavirus cases and nearly 145,000 deaths nationwide. As the virus continues to spread in more than 30 states, experts say it could be a while before the country sees the end of this surge of infections.
Early on in the pandemic, states such as New York, California, New Jersey, Washington and Louisiana were among the hardest hit, but as cases and deaths have declined or plateaued in these regions, new infections — and subsequent fatalities — are rising elsewhere. As much of the country experiences sharp upticks in new COVID-19 cases, many states are now also starting to see their hospitalization and fatality rates rise.
Lipworth added that the stages of a pandemic are not rigidly defined, but the U.S. would need to have the current outbreak under control before epidemiologists declare an end to the first wave. This hasn’t happened yet, she said, because even some states that saw cases and deaths level off or drop are now seeing both numbers creep back up again.
