This Wednesday, December 1, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed the first case of the COVID-19 variant, icron, in the US, which was detected in a patient in California.
This was reported by the main epidemic expert of the American university, Anthony Fauci, at a press conference at the White House, where the official detailed that the contagion corresponds to an individual who returned to the country from South Africa on November 22, 2021.
Faced with the situation, the White House issued a statement stating that, as President Joseph Biden said last Friday, it was only a matter of time before the first case of influenza was detected in the United States.
