In 24 hours, 749 people died from the coronavirus, far below the peak of 4,473 deaths recorded on January 12.

The US vaccine campaign launched in December is now in full swing, with nearly 10 percent of the American population — about 31.5 million people — having received either the two shots necessary for the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or the single shot in the case of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
