This week compared to last week, the cases have pretty much stalled," said Jennifer Nuzzo, the CRC's epidemiology lead, during a Friday online briefing. "That's worrisome for two reasons—one, because we like to see the declines continue, but also because where we're stalling is at a level of weekly case numbers that are still well above what we saw at the lower periods at the end of June and in early July."

A plateau in U.S. COVID-19 cases following several weeks of declining infections is a "worrisome" indication for a potential spike this winter as people congregate inside more often because of holidays and colder weather, a Johns Hopkins University expert said Friday.

The United States had been reporting case declines of 10% or more each week throughout September and October, but the 508,332 cases reported this week is nearly the same as last week, according to data from the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center.
