Here's the CDC's new grim update for coronavirus deaths in America

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has given a grave prediction for these five states increasing in coronavirus deaths.

This past Friday, the CDC released new estimations for how many coronavirus-related deaths are expected over the next month. While the numbers are quite grim to look at, they are nonetheless important, as it highlights the importance of taking preventative measures in your specific location. According to the CDC's forecast, it's expected that as many as 11,000 people will die over the next month.

Additionally, the CDC also highlighted five specific states that are expected to have an increase in coronavirus deaths over the same time period. Here's what the CDC said, "This week's national ensemble forecast predicts that weekly reports of new COVID-19 deaths may increase over the next month, with 5,000 to 11,000 new deaths reported during the week ending August 22." If you are interested in what states the CDC has listed, I have provided them below.
