Thanksgiving is the biggest holiday in America. But, COVID-19 has forced many Americans to reconsider their plans. According to Insider polling nearly one in five respondents canceled their pre-made Thanksgiving travels plans as a result of the pandemic. Additionally, nearly 19% of respondents reported Thanksgiving travel plans which include either driving or flying. ICU beds in hospitals are increasingly reaching capacity. Experts are concerned that the odds of a post-Thanksgiving coronavirus spike are "extremely high."
The first known case of COVID-19 reinfection in the United States has occurred. The 25-year-old man who was reinfected has no underlying health conditions to increase his risk. He was infected with two distinct genetic strains within 48 days after testing negative in-between. His second infection was more severe than the first, according to reports at UPI. The man required hospitalization with oxygen support after his most recent infection.
Over the course of the novel coronavirus pandemic, US President Donald Trump has admitted to have knowingly downplayed the seriousness of the illness. So when Trump tested positive for COVID-19 early on Friday, experts say it may now be difficult for him and his administration to be trusted. Specifically, Business Insider reports it may be difficult for Trump to navigate a public image as a 'strong leader,' given his long track record of lies. USC communications professor Karen North says that as Trump's stance on the pandemic has been dismissive of the threat, he can't change tune quickly. He's out of commission on a topic that just went in opposition to his rhetoric. And so they now have a messaging problem, and they're going to have to figure out what their message is going to be.
