The coronavirus pandemic continues to spread through dozens of countries around the world in what is among the worst outbreaks of infectious disease in a century, threatening the lives of millions of people.
Refuting the White House’s criminally dishonest dismissal of the disease’s severity, the number of cases in the United States continues to rise rapidly. The response at every level of government has been negligent and incompetent, exposing a total lack of planning and preparation in the world’s richest capitalist country.

Globally, the number of known Covid-19 cases is approaching 100,000, while the death rate has exceeded 3,000 cases, with more than 80 countries reporting an incidence of the infection.
The majority of the new cases are occurring outside of mainland China. Europe and the US are experiencing acceleration in the number of cases with now 11 deaths in the US with 149 confirmed cases indicating, as in Iran, a larger, and as of yet, undiagnosed health care crisis.
