Record US COVID-19 cases as reports say British queen to get vaccine soon

WASHINGTON: The United States notched a record number of COVID-19 cases in 24 hours for the third day running.

The coronavirus has now killed more than 1.5 million people and infected 66 million around the world since emerging in China last year, according to a tally from official sources compiled by AFP.Vast swaths of southern and inland California imposed new restrictions on businesses and activities Saturday as hospitals in the nation's most populous state face a dire shortage of beds.

California's statewide orders, which kick in whenever a region has less than 15 per cent capacity available in its intensive care units, allow critical infrastructure to stay open, including schools that have obtained waivers allowing them to hold in-person classes. Dental offices will also remain open.
