According to CNN, citing the forecast data of the Institute of Health Indicators and Evaluation of the University of Washington in the United States, 91,000 more people are expected to die of COVID-19 in the United States by June 1 this year, less than 100 days from today.
At present, the number of new infections and deaths in many states in the United States shows signs of slowing down, and some areas have begun to consider relaxing prevention and control measures.
However, the Institute of Health Indicators and Evaluation of the University of Washington said that premature relaxation of prevention and control measures and lax attitudes may lead to the rise of the epidemic curve again.
The agency also warned that the coronavirus variant is also one of the reasons why the future epidemic may continue to get out of control; it is expected that by the end of April, the number of infections caused by the coronavirus variant found in the United Kingdom may account for about 80% of the total number of infections in the United States.
