Coronavirus cases worldwide surpassed 200 million on Wednesday, according to a Reuters tally, as the Delta variant threatens areas with low vaccination rates.
Cases are rising in at least 83 out of 240 countries, according to the tally, and straining healthcare systems. "While we desperately want to be done with this pandemic, COVID-19 is clearly not done with us. And so our battle must last a little longer," Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said this week.
