"This is motivated by individual behaviors at this stage," he said.
Household gatherings have become a "major vector" of Coronavirus Spread, the Health Secretary and Health Services Alex Azar Friday, the day the United States has recorded the newest cases of COVID-19 since the beginning of The pandemic.
At least 82,600 new cases have been reported on Friday. According toNew York TimesThere has been a 40% increase in COVID hospitalizations for the last week and at least 14 states have defined hospital records.

This has become a major vector of the propagation of the disease. "Read on and ensure your health and health of others, do not miss these Without signs that you have already had coronavirus.
Small gatherings lead to "distress" overvoltage
Azar's comments on the source of recent overvoltage echo assessments by other health officials.
"Unfortunately, we see a painful tendency in the United States," saidJay Butler, the deputy director of the CDC for infectious diseases, roughly on the rise in business on Wednesday. He partially attributed it to cold weather. "The smaller and more intimate gatherings of family, friends and neighbors can also drive transmission, especially as they move inside."
Today, overvoltage is more widespread. The last time the United States has struck a case under 76,533 on 17 July, four states were responsible for 40,000 cases: Florida, California, Arizona and Texas, the Washington Post noted. On Friday, 11 states contributed to the same number of cases. In the last two weeks, 24 states broke their records for new daily cases.
"I recognize that we are all tired of the impact that Covid-19 has had on our lives. We are tired of carrying masks, but it continues to be as important as ever, and I would say it's more important Never ever as we move to the autumn season, "Butler said.
