According to a variety of reports by NBC News, the United States saw the largest number of Covid-19 casualties in a single day on Tuesday. A previous single-day high was recorded by the 3,350 deaths break that was set only last week, on Dec. 16.
Meanwhile, a huge Covid-19 relief bill that had just been approved by Congress was criticized by President Donald Trump.
In a video, Trump said he wanted the bill to be revised to lift the $600 direct payment to $2,000, as well as other amendments. Trump didn’t state specifically that he was going to veto it, but his comments implied he could.
