Millions of people faced new coronavirus restrictions Wednesday as infections surged in several parts of the globe, with researchers warning the epidemic in the US is set to get even worse.

With signs of a deteriorating US situation, the world's largest retailer Walmart said it would require customers to wear masks at all its stores to help stop the virus spreading.

But one of the research groups said near-universal wearing of face masks could save 40,000 lives between now and November. The company has more than 5,300 Walmart and Sam's Club stores in the United States and is a giant presence in many of the southern and western states that have seen increases in cases and hospitalizations in recent weeks.

Most of the city's residents voluntarily adopted face masks as a barrier against the virus when it was first detected in mainland China, but the Hong Kong government now requires passengers on public transport to wear them or risk a fine.There was alarm in Japan too, where Tokyo's governor warned that the capital was on its highest coronavirus alert level after a spike in infections.

'Biden would win if US election was held today' | Sky News AustraliaUS Studies Centre Non-Resident Fellow James Brown says “Joe Biden would end up being president” if the US election was held today. \n\nRecent polls have seen Democratic nominee Joe Biden take the lead ahead of President Donald Trump in the leadup up to the November election. \n\nMr Brown told Sky News the betting markets “clearly see that if the election was held today Joe Biden would win by some margin”. \n\n “There will be people that will support [Trump] in November no matter what because they’re worried Biden is going to destroy the economy by moving to the left… that he will be too focused on identity politics and political correctness - but [Trump] is starting to lose support amongst groups that did support him in 2016,” he said. \n\n“What’s changed? Well Biden is a more likeable candidate than Hillary Clinton was and also people have had the chance to see how the President performs.\n\n“There was hope that he would be able to achieve the unachievable in 2016 when he was elected, now they’ve seen the President often struggles to execute his policies and he’s a very unstable leader.” \n\nImage: AP JoeBiden ☺😃😊😁😃☺😃😊😃😁 JoeBiden What has James Brown been right about?
