(Reuters) - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Sunday reported a total 13,142,997 cases of new coronavirus, an increase of 143,333 from its previous count, and said the number of deaths had risen by 1,210 to 265,166.

The CDC figures do not necessarily reflect cases reported by individual states.

 

In Las Cruces, New Mexico, at the Memorial Medical Center, a family, like many across America, watches and waits while a loved one struggles with COVID in an intensive care ward.

 

Jose Garcia, 67, has been in the ICU there since Nov. 6 and doesn't appear to be getting better, said his daughter, Carolina Garcia, a nurse for 12 years at the hospital.

 

She, like her eight brothers and sisters, are praying their father will recover, she said.

 

"I feel as a nurses, we're seeing a type of nursing we've never seen," she said. "Usually they (patients) come in they come in and get better and go home. This is a whole different ballgame. The virus - it's not getting better."

It is truly sad to see how many Americans have died from this virus so far, and to know

that there will be many more die before that country gets the situation under control.

   I am glad that there are some vaccines that are close to being released for use.

   It would be nice to see all the people in the USA to be very cautious and try their

best to stay covid free, but I doubt that the anti maskers and other virus doubters change their

ways and attitudes until they get infected.  Stay cautious Thailand, and hope that the vaccines

are available soon.
