According to Reuters, US health officials have urged citizens to avoid traveling and attending family gatherings in the run-up to Thanksgiving.
These US public health officials have stated that despite these warnings, many people are traveling during the Thanksgiving holiday, and therefore the number of infected people is expected to increase.

A resurgence of the virus in the United States has led to the closure of schools and restaurants in some states. A number of states, including New York, have imposed new restrictions.
Reuters says that official statistics in the United States show that in less than a week, one million new cases of Covid-19 have been reported, bringing the total number of infected people to more than 12 million and 742 thousand. The number of victims of the coronavirus in the United States has also exceeded 260 thousand.
