Doctors say the US is in a 'free fall' with coronavirus as 32 states struggle with higher rates of infection
While new Covid-19 infections keep soaring in most states, some hospitals are close to running out of beds.
But by the looks of packed holiday crowds this weekend, many Americans don't care -- threatening to infect others and set the economy back even further.
"We are in free fall," said Dr. Rochelle Walensky, chief of infectious diseases at Massachusetts General Hospital.
"You see the footage of what happened this past weekend. And people are either naive to the influence of their actions, or they're simply resigned to ignore it."
Trump reportedly demanding the message underrate the danger, harp on futility, insist on inevitability, emphasize the economy and behaving "normally" - that is, as if there were no virus.
And that's why we're not hearing from the medical experts, any more.
