NNPA NEWSWIRE — Nearly 219 million people globally had contracted the novel coronavirus since March 2020, when officials officially declared a pandemic. Over 4.5 million have died, including more than 657,000 in the United States, where the disease has disproportionately attacked African Americans and other communities of color. Health officials have identified the Delta variant — and the lack of those vaccinated — as the primary reason over 100,000 people in the United States are currently hospitalized — the largest number since the beginning of the year.
