367 wildfires blaze across California, many started by the previous weekend’s thunderstorms. The wildfires mean that some parts of California are now contenting with raging fires, a heat wave, poor air quality brought on by the fires, and the still-uncontrolled coronavirus pandemic.
The COVID-19 disease is the third-leading cause of death in the U.S. Deaths exceed 1000 per day and nationwide cases exceed 5.4 million. Testing has dropped by an average 68,000 per day, despite death being 8 times more likely in the United States vs in Europe.
