Donald Trump attacked his top public health expert yesterday, using a call with campaign staff to deride Anthony Fauci as “a disaster” and to claim “people are tired of hearing Fauci and all these idiots” discussing ways to combat the coronavirus. Here’s an update on the latest coronavirus figures from across the US.
A coronavirus outbreak has killed 10 residents in a nursing home in a northwestern Kansas county that proportionally already had the nation’s largest increase in cases over two weeks, reports John Hanna for the Associated Press.
The health department in Norton County reported Monday night that all 62 residents and an unspecified number of employees at the Andbe Home in Norton had tested positive for the novel coronavirus. The agency also said one Andbe Home resident was hospitalized, while the remaining 51 were being treated at the home.
