The USA just reported its deadliest day for coronavirus patients as states reopen [View all]

The U.S. saw 2,909 people die of Covid-19 in 24 hours, according to the data, which was collected as of 4 a.m. ET on Friday.

That’s the highest daily death toll in the U.S. yet based on a CNBC analysis of the WHO’s daily Covid-19 situation reports.

The country’s deadliest day comes as state officials weigh reopening parts of the economy and easing stay-at-home orders.
