Europe’s deaths spike in wake of second COVID-19 surge | CIDRAP

Italy—one of the countries hit hardest in the earlier wave—passed 1 million cases today, and four of its regions are designated as red zones, where the tightest lockdown requirements are in place. Yesterday, Italy reported 580 deaths, the most since Apr 14, Reuters reported. Hospitalizations and deaths usually lag surges in infections by a few weeks.

The United Kingdom, which has Europe’s highest fatality count, reported 532 deaths yesterdayForbes reported, and has now crossed the 50,000-death threshold. The country is among a handful of European nations that ordered lockdown to curb the latest surges.

Belgium, also on lockdown, is reporting a slow decline in cases, but deaths continue to rise, averaging about 190 per day, the Brussels Times reported.

Philadelphia GOP city commissioner: ‘Bad actors’ are ‘lying’ about election fraud | TheHill

Republican Philadelphia City Commissioner Al Schmidt responded Wednesday to attacks on him by President Trump over the tabulation of votes in the city, warning that “bad actors” were “lying” about the vote-counting process.

“I think people should be mindful that there are bad actors who are lying to them,” Schmidt said on CNN’s “New Day.” “And they need to turn to people that they trust and to sources of information that they trust and not rumors and not nonsense included in the lawsuits or anything else like that, to make sure that they have confidence in this system, and that their vote, regardless of who they voted for, is going to be counted.”
