WASHINGTON – COVID-19 might give new meaning to the phrase: “home for the holidays.”

Dr. Robert Redfield, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, tells the Washington Post, a second wave of the Coronavirus, later this year, could be “more difficult” than the current strand.











Last week President Trump unveiled suggested benchmarks for states to start easing social distancing measures, but Redfield called for state officials to continue promoting social distancing and to increase contact tracing and testing.

More than 45,000 people in the United States have died from the Coronavirus, according to Johns Hopkins University.
