Washington, August 12 (RHC)-- More than 100,000 cases of C0VID-19 are being reported daily in the Americas, half of them in the United States, and there are worrisome spikes in countries that had outbreaks controlled, such as Argentina and Colombia, World Health Organization regional director Carissa Etienne has said.
"Our region remains under COVID's grip," Etienne said in a virtual briefing from Washington with other Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) directors.
The United States has reported around five million cases and Brazil, with the second worst outbreak in the world, has recorded more than 100,000 deaths.
