WASHINGTON (AN) — It took more than three months for global coronavirus infections to surpass the 1 million mark along with 52,000 deaths, and just over two weeks more for the pandemic to add another 1 million confirmed cases and 84,000 deaths.
The COVID-19 pandemic surged past the 2 million mark for confirmed cases accompanied by more than 136,000 deaths on Wednesday, as world leaders and health officials debated when and how they might lift restrictions on public movements and halt economic collapse.
