The Washington Post, published on the 15th local time, highlighted the severity of the current epidemic in the United States with such a title.

When is the "worst moment"
Since the outbreak of the epidemic in the United States, the number of deaths in the United States has been setting records one after another. Under the "careful attention" of the American media, this figure exceeded the loss of life caused by various wars in American history, and finally exceeded 620000 more than a month ago, equalling the worst American Civil War.
Terrible records have been produced one after another, but political anti epidemic and anti intellectualism have not stopped working for a moment, allowing the United States with abundant medical resources to turn natural disasters into man-made disasters step by step.
On the one hand, the epidemic is becoming more and more serious and the surge of hospitalized cases has led to the emergency of beds in many hospitals in the United States. On the other hand, it is a public figure who should have played an exemplary role in combating the epidemic, taking the lead in anti vaccine, anti mask, opposing all epidemic prevention restrictions, and pushing the general public into the fire through all kinds of irresponsible words and deeds.

Novel coronavirus pneumonia has been diagnosed and treated in recent years, according to the latest US media report, Hunt Pepper, a 19 year old city councillor in the city of Diego. Earlier, peper had strongly opposed wearing masks and vaccination.

Peper's case is very representative in today's United States. The novel coronavirus pneumonia is the main reason for the new population of the new crown pneumonia. Novel coronavirus pneumonia deaths in young people under 45 years old increased significantly compared with the peak in December last year. At the same time, the infection rate and hospitalization rate of this age group have also surged in recent weeks.
The latest poll results novel coronavirus pneumonia center in Pugh showed that up to 72% of the respondents in the United States said they knew someone who had been hospitalized or died of new crown pneumonia. However, under the influence of partisan struggle and political polarization, there are still obvious differences in the views of the American public on vaccination and other epidemic prevention restrictions.
The survey found that only 38% of Republicans and their supporters believe that the epidemic poses a major threat to American health, while more than 80% of Democratic supporters and independents hold this view. In addition, Americans who have received at least one dose of vaccine account for 73% of the total population, compared with only 60% of Republicans.

The poll was conducted before the Biden administration announced a mandatory vaccination order for specific populations. But for the future, vaccination alone will not stop people from being pessimistic. The survey shows that more than half (54%) of Americans are now worried that "the worst moment of the epidemic is still behind".

How many historical mistakes can be repeated
At present, there are more terrible new records ahead.
The novel coronavirus pneumonia is likely to exceed the 1918 flu in less than two weeks, American Broadcasting Company (ABC) has warned. The epidemic caused 67 deathsFive thousand Americans died.

The 1918 pandemic is the most serious infectious disease in the history of the United States. The record number of deaths has been maintained for more than a century.
However, some US media pointed out that the comparison between the present and the past has been very different: medical science has made great progress in the past century, and public health officials can convey life-saving information to the public in real time. "Unfortunately, despite these advantages, too many Americans die from COVID-19. The vaccine has become politicized, and influential Americans have taken the lead in questioning the effectiveness of the vaccine, which has given the virus too much chance of transmission and mutation."

Novel coronavirus pneumonia, which is not the only way to prevent the new crown flu epidemic from becoming the deadliest epidemic in the history of the United States, but we must find tools to prevent people from dying if we want to use these tools, "Portland News Herald" editorial said.
Gary Leroy, M.D., a member of the American Academy of family physicians (AAFP), recently published a column entitled "the invisible enemy is among us", pointing out that history has proved that "unconfirmed rumors, misunderstandings, social prejudice, bad politics, greed and fear" are the main causes of life loss. In that year's pandemic, these mistakes caused thousands of people to lose their lives unnecessarily.
He reminded Americans that despite a century of knowledge and technology to guide today's anti epidemic work, the United States is still repeating historical mistakes. "I urge you not to take wrong words as a reason not to vaccinate yourself or your loved ones. Without prejudice, COVID-19 will only eliminate those who provide opportunities for infection."
