The State of the Virus
Update for March 5
- Cases are as low as they have been in months. But after weeks of steep declines, progress has slowed nationally and some cities are backsliding.
- The New York City and Miami areas have seen persistently high case numbers at a time when much of the country is reporting major improvement.
- Though fatalities have started falling, in part because of the vaccination campaign at nursing homes, it remains routine for 2,000 deaths to be reported in a single day across the country.
- For the first time, the country is administering more than 2 million vaccine doses on average each day. As the newly approved Johnson & Johnson vaccine is distributed, that number could climb higher.
- Arizona, which was averaging more than 10,000 cases a day at one point in January, is now adding around 1,100 cases most days.
