The World Health Organization (WHO) recorded 2,909 deaths in a single day, which was collected between Thursday and 4am on Friday. But it comes as states across the US begin reopening public spaces, including shops, restaurants, libraries and museums, despite there being more than 1.1 million confirmed cases and at least 68,000 deaths nationwide. Health experts have warned of a potential second wave of infections unless testing is expanded dramatically once the lockdowns are relaxed. Yet pressure to reopen keeps building after the weeks-long shutdown of businesses plunged the global economy into its deepest slump since the 1930s and wiped out millions of jobs.

Though the administration’s handling of the pandemic, particularly the ability to conduct widespread testing, has come under criticism, the president defended the response and said the nation was ready to begin reopening. ‘We have to get it back open safely but as quickly as possible,’ Mr Trump said.

She said: ‘It’s devastatingly worrisome to me personally, because if they go home and infect their grandmother or their grandfather … they will feel guilty for the rest of our lives. ‘So we need to protect each other at the same time we’re voicing our discontent.’ Dr Tom Inglesby, director of the Centre for Health Security at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said the virus could come back in ‘small waves in various places around the country’ if restrictions are lifted too soon.

The Republican-majority Senate will reopen on Monday in Washington. The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives is staying shuttered. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s decision to convene 100 senators gives Mr Trump, a Republican, the imagery he wants of America getting back to work, despite the risks.
