The United States recorded more than 1,000 deaths from the CCP virus in the past 24 hours, pushing the total past 5,000, according to data provided by the Johns Hopkins University database.

The spike in deaths comes as President Donald Trump and White House health officials warn of a “very painful” two-week period in which cases and deaths are expected to increase. Dr. Anthony Fauci, one of the lead members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, has said that more than 200,000 Americans could die from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus even as current restrictions remain in place.
