Washington, August 17 (RHC)-- The U.S. death toll from the coronavirus has topped 170,000. Public health officials are expressing alarm as the number of daily COVID-19 tests across the country has dropped 17% since mid-July, making it harder for states to track the outbreak.
The Centers for Disease Control is warning infection rates are “steadily increasing” in children. This comes as millions of students prepare to return to school. In Arizona, one school district outside of Phoenix has canceled classes for a week after teachers threatened to stage a sickout and refuse to go to their classes.
