translated from Spanish: U.S. breaks daily record and rubs 2.5 million contagions

The United States broke the daily record of COVID-19 contagion on Friday (26,06,2020) with 45,330 confirmed cases, bringing 2,462,057 infected people in the world’s most hit country by the pandemic, according to the independent Johns Hopkins University account.
The balance at 20:00 local time (00:00 GMT on Saturday) also increases the death toll to 124,978, having added 574 in the last 24 hours. In addition to the 574 on Friday, the 1,854 “probable” deaths in New Jersey reported to the count were also added to the count.
New York remains the highest hit state in the United States with 391,220 confirmed cases and 31,342 deaths, a figure only below Brazil, the United Kingdom and Italy. In New York City alone, 22,421 people have died.
Behind New York are neighboring New Jersey with 14,914 dead, Massachusetts with 8,012 and Illinois with 6,847, followed by Pennsylvania, Michigan, California and Connecticut. California is the second state with the highest number of contagions, behind New York.
Another record was in Texas, with 5,996 new cases on Thursday, leading his authorities to impose a “temporary pause” on deconfining. “If it doesn’t contain itself in the next two weeks, it’ll be completely out of control,” Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott warned.
The provisional balance of deceased in the United States already exceeded the lowest level of the Initial White House estimates, which he projected at best between 100,000 and 240,000 deaths from the pandemic.
