The condition of the US is getting worse day by day in terms of the corona pandemic. Several states have seen record increment in the number of cases in recent days. The country contains 2.5 million coronavirus cases that are a quarter of all the cases around the world. The US has the highest number of patients with the lowest recovery rate, and the maximum number of testing compare to other countries.  

The condition of pandemic got worse in the march as people of the US are not much aware of the virus’s infectious nature. Several reports have also blamed the government for not taking the appropriate steps on time to control the virus in the starting phase. In May, the new coronavirus cases have to decline, and now several states are removing the various restrictions and allowing the public t to do multiple public activities.  

The US healthcare experts have predicted that the worse condition is still to come in the upcoming days. Nowadays, regularly 20.000 new coronavirus cases are being reported in various states of the US. The only hope people have to discover a vaccine that can completely nullify the effect of the virus in the human body. Moving further in the article, let’s discuss some reasons behind the boost coronavirus cases in the country. 

Pay attention to several reasons that are responsible for increment in coronavirus cases in the US. 

Protest of BLACK LIVES MATTER 

Recently in the US, several racism incidents take place that comes with a massive gathering of people around the various cities of the country. Due to the mass people gathering, the risk of coronavirus spread has increased. The Trump government has taken multiple steps to avoid mass gathering, such as the deployment of security guards, implementation of curfews, tear gas use, strong action against protestors, etc. However, all the efforts are not sufficient for the protest as the US’s black people want final justice for George Floyd and Jacob. 

More testing  

The main reason behind the increment of coronavirus cases in the US is increased testing. The president trump has also admired this fact in an interview where he answers the question that the journalist asked about the reason behind the sudden increase in coronavirus cases. Trump also said that if other countries start doing as much testing as the US is doing, the number of cases in other countries will also show a boost in new coronavirus cases. 

Age of population 

Generally, coronavirus is more prone to senior citizens and Children’s. The US has a high percentage of senior citizens as compared to other countries. This can be a reason behind the high number of infected cases.  

The strength of COVID-19 in the US is getting low, and the new number of cases is declining day by day. Several medical companies in the US have done successful trials of coronavirus vaccine, and it is likely to come in the market at the end of the year, let’s hope for best.

What Is Going On In The US Presidential Election?

What Is Going On In The US Presidential Election?

The presidential election in the US is scheduled on 3rd November. The result of the election is likely to declare on 14TH December that the US will get its 59th president on this day. The republican party has announced Donald Trump and Mike Pence as the president’s candidate and vice-president post. In comparison, the Joe Biden and Indo-Jamaican Senator Kamala Harris are the democratic candidates that will compete in the election. The selection of Kamala Harris is questioned by the republicans as the step to seek the votes of American Indians. 

According to today’s scenario, various election polls are giving results in favor of Joe Biden. Still, in the last election, we have seen the wrong prediction of election polls as the winning of Hillary Clinton. So, we cannot do blind trust in the surveys. Several events of the US election have postponed due to COVID-19. For example, on the march, the primary election is canceled in six states. 

If we look at all incidents in 2020 in the US, the winning possibility of president Trump is relatively low as he fails to deal with the pandemic. Now, various racist protests are being carried out all over the country, and he again fails to deal with that. But multiple reports have shown that the final result can shock the people and all the pre-prediction made in favor of Joe Biden. 

Effect of foreign interference on US elections 

The US officials and investigating agencies often blamed Russia and Iran to influence the US election against President Trump. They are making the allegation that the BLACK LIVE MATTER movement is getting direct funding and support from foreign countries. In 2019 FBI has detected the group of Chinese hackers trying to hack the e-mail and other essential information of US government officials and US journalists. The main aim of hackers is to disturb the political stability and manipulate the security-related information. 

Effect of Racist incidents on US election 

Recently, just before the presidential election ion US various racist incidents took place one by one, including George Floyd and Jackob by the police officers. Several reports have predicted that the incidents will show a significant effect against Donald Trump, and somehow, the opposition candidate will lead the election. The incidents have blown up the racist remarks in the US faced by the people since the colonial era. 

Effect of the pandemic on US election 

Pandemic has affected various international and national relations in the US. Most of the people think that the Trump administration has failed to control the spread of coronavirus. This perception is going to hit hard in the presidential election. 

Lastly, in the market of predictions, we can only wait for the final result. Still, this election in the US will change everything in the country, including several Laws, Policies, Economic structure, Racist justice, etc. Let’s wait for the resulting day.

Check Out The Latest Information About The US Economy

US economy is going through the worse condition of the decade. The budget deficit climbed to 2.80 trillion in the last six months. This is the lowest foreign reserve in the history of the country. Treasury Department has predicted the deficit to be continued till September. The budget deficit is almost double as compared to last year’s trends. The economic department has reported the 65 billion deficits in July. However, the Trump administration is somehow managing all problems and predicting the bounce-back of the economy. 

The main reason behind the economic deficit is the effect of coronavirus pandemic on the various economic forums. In July, the deficit is lower as compared to June as the government has collected the maximum amount of tax to generate good revenue in the economy. According to some reports, the government has collected USD 565 billion in the last month. The Americans are trying their best to overcome from economic recession. 

Due to the pandemic, the US government has approved the various rescue packages worth approximately USD 3 trillion. But then also the opposition is demanding more relief packages. Last month President Trump passed the relief packages for unemployed people worth USD 400 billion. Due to the vast expenditure on relief packages, the economy is now suffering from an economic recession. The value of Dollars in the international market is going down day by day. 

Comment of President Trump on the US economy 

Last Saturday, during the press conference, the president addressed that the US’s economy is “amazingly” well and setting records in generating new jobs. He also adds that the unemployment rate is at the lowest as compared to the previous government. However, the economy experts are making a joke of the statement and addressing the president as dumb and foolish. 

The senior economic advisor of president Trump Kevin Hassett has stated in an interview that the country’s economy is coming back way faster than it is expected. He also addresses that the economy would be hit back if the second wave of the pandemic has arrived in the country. 

Position of Dollar in the international market 

On Thursday, the dollar was in defensive mode against most of the currencies. The Chinese currency yuan jumps high against the dollar. Several experts have predicted that in the coming years yuan may overtake the dollar in the international market and establish itself as the central foreign currency exchange. 

To tackle the problem, the government has approved the excessive flow of dollars in the international market to balance demand and supply. On the other side, the euro is also getting high growth as compared to USD. This is a real matter of concern. 

However, several economic experts have predicted that the US’s economy is evergreen and will contain its value back in the international market. To revive the economy, it is necessary to discover the vaccine of coronavirus in the upcoming months.

Why are MLS, NBA and other sports are canceling their matches?

Why are MLS, NBA and other sports are canceling their matches?

Jacob Blake’s shooting has promoted many athletes to boycott the matches to support the fight for justice. White supremacy and police brutality have been US problems for a long time, but the good news is in present demonstrations everyone is participating. Mostly white people did not participate in these protests, but now every person is stepping up and is showing their support towards justice.

Blake’s shooting incident made the protest or demonstration even bigger for taking racial justice places across America. This incident ignited tension throughout5 the country as there was a widespread demonstration going on for George Floyd and in-middle this incident, raising tension and anger towards white supremacy and police brutality towards black people. So, to show there support, nearly every player boycotted the game.

What teams have boycotted the games?

Several NBA teams had boycotted their fixtures; it started with Milwaukee Bucks calling off the Game 5 for their play-off against Orlando Magic. Bucks were meant to come out from their locker room and arrive at the court at 4 pm. Still, they do not come on the court and condemn police’s actions for Blake issued statement saying, “When we take the court and represent Milwaukee and Wisconsin, we are expected to play at a high level, give maximum effort and hold each other accountable.” They simply could not because of the painful death of Jacob Blake by police officers.

Following this, MLS also called off their games to fight for the support of racial justice. MLS has also issued a series of statements saying that African Americans should get justice, and the officer responsible for this should be punished.

Players used their social media accounts to unite and aware of everyone for justice. Only one game was held on Wednesday, and that was between Orlando city and Nashville SC. Player’s said that they were not aware that other teams had to cancel the matches, and they respect the decisions made by other countries.         

Will the NBA and MLS seasons would be called-off?

Many reports said that many teams are demanding to cancel the whole NBA season on Wednesday night, but some players agreed to play the play-offs, but we don’t know when these play-offs would be held.

There will be further meetings to discuss how the league can address the issues related to social injustice and racism.

MLS stated that the postponed games would be rescheduled, but there is no idea when these games would be started.

What is the reason behind the protest happening in the United States?

The United States has an ugly history of racism and police brutality toward African-Americans. These protests started when an African-American, George Floyd, was killed by a police officer.

Initially, that police officer was not arrested; after protests, he was charged with second-degree murder. After that many incidents of killing, black people came up, so it was essential to send a deep and widespread message of justice

We know that our entertainment has been stopped, but police brutality and racism are much more significant issues. We all should support our players and leagues for taking this step, which may improve the justice system of America.

Black Lives Matter the Largest Movement in the History Of US

Black Lives Matter the Largest Movement in the History Of US

The recent protest against white supremacy and police brutality peaked on June 6, as half a million people joined and protested in 550 places across the United States. On this single day, there were more than a month of protests. According to recent surveys, around 15 to 26 million people joined for demonstrations of anger towards the death of George Floyd and others in recent weeks. These figures tell us that this demonstration or protest is the biggest protest in the US’s history.

Most surveys conducted were online, and it is possible that some would be lying about participation. But even half of the number would have joined the protests; still, it takes around 7 million people. We cannot stress more that this protest is the biggest and most significant protest in the history of the US.

Why Protest is going on

This protest is essential as all we know the supremacy of white people over the Black people. Police are ruthless and unfair towards the Black community. These protests are chanting and demanding one thing, and that is BLACK LIVES MATTER.

Now, why is this movement different?

We cannot have a precise count, and it has risen some disputes as well; police and organizers of the protest have amalgamated so we can believe the number provided them. According to the United States, there have been more than 4700 protests in the country, on an average 140 per day the first protest was in Minneapolis on May 26. The geographical spread of demonstrations is significant as it will help to convey the message more deeply. These movements are different because they are backed by an organization around 2013 called Black Lives Matter.

This organization has been responsible for providing material, guidance, and a framework for activities. These protests are also different because they are being carried out since Trump took the administration due to the government’s decisions on guns, climate changes, immigration.

This protest is different as it has many purposes with one primary purpose and that white supremacy in the United States.

Who is protesting? 

More than 40 percent of the country has participated in the protest once. Unlike other Black Lives Matter protest this time, 95 percent of whites participated in the demonstrations. This means that now participants are diversified due to the enormous number; the message goes deep and wide for the administration.

Movements in the early 1960s and after that there were very few whites in the demonstrations, but now the case is opposite as 95 percent of whites are participating. Interviews and surveys tell us that half of the white protesting is the first time joined for any kind of demonstrations.

The movements have resulted great as the Minneapolis; the city council pledged to dismantle the police department.

This protest is vital and the biggest demonstration in the history of the United States of America. These protests have people from every race, as this protest is diversified, the message is sent deep and widely spread.
