The director of the nation’s top public health agency said Monday that the drops in COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths could be erased in the near future due to new variants of the virus that causes the disease.
The number of daily new cases has dropped sharply in recent weeks but there’s evidence the declines are stalling around 70,000 cases a day, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky.
