Daily CCP virus infections and deaths have both hit lows not seen since the early days of the pandemic, White House officials said Thursday.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director Rochelle Walensky called the data “encouraging and uplifting” as she announced at a briefing that the agency had reported a seven-day average of around 15,600 new daily cases of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, the pathogen that causes COVID-19.
