The United States, due to the negligence of its government, with more than 678,000 diagnosed cases and 34,000 deaths, has become the epicenter of the disease. Therefore, several US officials blame President Donald Trump for the country’s health crisis and for minimizing the problem from the start.
The management of the United States government in the crisis caused by COVID-19, has unleashed a wave of criticism within the United States, where a large number of citizens and governors have warned of catastrophic consequences if the White House occupant continues his current policy against the pandemic.
