The number of new confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States in a single day has set a new record for consecutive days, with more than 600,000 new cases in a single day at the most, and an average of more than 300,000 new confirmed cases in 7 days. U.S. President Joe Biden, who vowed to control the epidemic at the beginning of his presidency, is now being questioned.
Among them, former US President Trump also issued a statement on the last day of 2021, criticizing Biden's "ineffective epidemic prevention" and criticizing his recent remarks that "the federal government has no fault, and the states themselves fight the epidemic", which is diametrically opposed to what was promised during the campaign.
Recently, affected by the intensification of the epidemic by the Omiljung mutation virus, the epidemic in the United States has rebounded again, and even seriously hit Biden, who was previously "confident" in the fight against the epidemic, and he claimed in a video conference with the governors of the US states on December 27 that his government has no "federal solution" to the current epidemic and that the states should solve the crisis themselves. He also admitted that the current domestic testing volume of the new crown virus is still seriously insufficient.

Since Twitter and other social media accounts were banned, Trump has been issuing statements on the "Save America PAC" platform, this time targeting the current US President Joe Biden.
On December 31, 2021, local time, Trump said in a statement: "The new crown virus infection rate in the United States has reached a record high. Remember when Biden said he would fix this problem quickly and easily? What's he doing? He now says it's up to the states, not the federal government, which is the exact opposite of what he said during the campaign! ”

Previously, according to the "Politico News Network", Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC) and other US media reported on December 27, in response to the current epidemic, Biden held a video conference with the governors of the US states on the same day, he told the governors that the US federal government can not solve the epidemic problem, and whether the US epidemic can end depends on the efforts of the state governments.
CNBC analysis believes that Biden made this remark at the meeting with state governors, perhaps because he was worried that without the cooperation of states, the ANTI-epidemic measures of the US federal government would have little effect. But his statement may also be putting pressure on state governors to try to make state governments take more responsibility for fighting the epidemic.
The US media also analyzed that Biden's statement that "the epidemic in the United States needs to be resolved by all states" is in stark contrast to the "ambitious" anti-epidemic commitment he made during last year's election. Before the start of the U.S. presidential election in October 2020, Biden threatened to "end the virus" without shutting down the economy. He repeatedly made the same commitment when addressing supporters.

In fact, since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in the United States, the time that Trump and Biden have led the national fight against the epidemic as presidents has now been basically flat. Although Trump's epidemic prevention work has been very bad, Biden is not much better now.
"Fighting the epidemic" has been a key point in Biden's 2020 campaign, and he has repeatedly criticized former President Trump for his ineffective fight against the epidemic. In his final debate with Trump, Biden also bluntly said: "Anyone who is responsible for so many deaths should not continue to be president of the United States." ”
However, when Trump left office, the number of COVID-19 deaths in the United States was about 400,000, but now the death toll in the United States has exceeded 817,000, which means that more than 417,000 people died under Biden, which has exceeded the data during Trump's presidency.
And look at Trump, after stepping down as president, not only did he even get the new crown vaccine reinforcement injection, but recently he has repeatedly refuted the "vaccine skepticism" and boasted of his "vaccine development achievements" during his tenure, from the original world-famous "lying flat against the epidemic" number one person, transformed into a "vaccine promotion ambassador" who looks like a child.

According to the statistics of Johns Hopkins University in the United States, as of 7:21 Beijing time on January 1, 2022, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new crown pneumonia in the United States reached 54578326, and the cumulative number of deaths reached 825446. In the past 25 hours, there have been 363241 new confirmed cases and 1,311 new deaths in the United States.
Pushing the time forward by three days, the number of new confirmed cases in the United States in a single day is staggering 511,000, 491,000 and 618,000, respectively. In the past week, the United States set a new record high of an average of more than 300,000 new cases per day (300886).
In the face of the current situation, some medical experts believe that the United States may be "commonplace" with more than 500,000 new cases per day in the following period of time, while the New York Times pessimistically said that after the "meeting" of Aumechjong and Delta, the United States is falling into "another long winter".
