(CNN) - At least 3,003 people have died in the United States from Covid- 19, according to a CNN tally of data from state health departments.
There
have been at least 160,698 cases of coronavirus that have been detected and tested in the United States through US public health systems.
The total includes cases from every state, the District of Columbia and several US territories, as well as repatriated cases.
Hawaii and Wyoming have not reported death from coronavirus.
Each
day sees more reports of deaths than the previous day. There were more than 500 reports of deaths from coronavirus on Monday, the most death reports in a single day in the United States.
Almost one out of every five US deaths reported during the coronavirus crisis was reported Monday.
Doctor fears chaos
Many
people on the front lines of the national health care crisis against
Covid-19 are feeling frustrated -- and ill -- in the battle against the
novel coronavirus.
Hundreds of medical workers across the country have fallen sick and hospitals face dire shortages of protective gear.
"We are slowly descending into chaos," a trauma physician at Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital said.
The doctor's colleagues who normally
rely on literature, research and training are "flying blind" without
instruments and building guidelines from the ground up, the physician
said.
And when they're done treating coronavirus patients in trauma, they head back to the ICU to treat more.
At
a New York hospital, staff members were wiping down and reusing single-use protective equipment, a doctor in the anesthesiology department said.
When the hospital ran out of life-saving ventilators, it started using anesthesia machines instead.
"There
is not enough of anything," the doctor said. "There are just so many
patients who are so sick, it seems impossible to keep up with the
demand."
And it's not just the elderly who get severe complications. More young adults are getting hospitalized with coronavirus.
At
NYU-Langone Brooklyn hospital, patients ranging from their 20s to their
90s are being intubated, an emergency room nurse said.
In
Boston, "we are seeing lots of young people get very sick in our
intensive care units," said Dr. Rochelle Walensky, chief of infectious
disease at Massachusetts General Hospital.
"So
when we are asking you to stay home, we are saying please stay home because we don't know who they will be," she said. "We have no way to
predict who of the younger will get sicker."
