Posted on by myMatrixx

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there have been about 21 million known COVID-19 infections in the U.S. since January 2020. Some studies suggest the actual number could be three to five times higher than that, as many individuals are asymptomatic and unaware of their infection, underlining the need for widespread vaccination efforts.
