NCDHHS: NCDHHS Reports Highest One-Day Increase of COVID-19 Positive Tests; More than 3,000 Cases Reported

The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services is reporting the state’s highest one day number of COVID-19 cases with 3,119 cases reported. Other key metrics also increased with hospitalizations at 1,246 and the percent of tests that were positive climbing to 7.9 percent.

“This is not the milestone we want to be hitting, particularly as we head into holidays where people want to come together. I am asking North Carolinians to do what they do best, look out for each other. Wear a mask. Wait six feet apart. Wash your hands often. We’ve had more time to learn about this devastating virus and study after study shows that these three simple actions can help keep our family, friends and neighbors from getting sick,” said NCDHHS Secretary Mandy K. Cohen, M.D.

Coronavirus: The Russian provinces buckling under Covid-19 – BBC News

Covid-19 infection rates are now surging again in Russia and this time the poorer provinces are being hit the hardest. In northern regions like Arkhangelsk patients have been forced to sleep on benches and in corridors and ambulance crews are overwhelmed.

Health workers in Russia are usually wary of sounding critical, but now they are reaching breaking point and are speaking out about their challenges. BBC Moscow correspondent Sarah Rainsford headed north to meet them.

Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky and the head of his office, Andry Yermak, have been hospitalised after they contracted coronavirus earlier this week, a presidential official said on Thursday.

Zelensky and Yermak are being treated at Kyiv’s Feofania Clinical Hospital. “He first went home, but decided to move to Feofania, to accurately isolate and not expose anyone. There are better conditions for patients”, a presidential spokeswoman said, referring to the president’s health.

On Monday, Zelensky revealed that he tested positive for COVID-19. Other top officials, including the finance and defense ministers, were also reported to be infected.

On Wednesday, Zelensky’s cabinet voted to impose a national lockdown at weekends.

On Thursday, the country registered a record 11,057 new coronavirus cases over the previous 24 hours, with 198 new deaths. So far, it has registered a total of 500,865 infections and 9,145 deaths.
