Hospital bed shortage, refrigerated trailers become morgues

According to Johns Hopkins University the United States saw more than 75,000 new confirmed coronavirus cases on Thursday.

That sets another single day record for the country.

More than 36 states are seeing a spike in week-to-week new cases.

Coronavirus related deaths have surged so much in south-central Texas many hospital morgues are at full capacity because of the postponement of many funerals due to social distancing guidelines.

More than 200 people died of Covid19 in Bexar County which includes San Antonio.

Refrigerated trailers are now being used as temporary morgues because hospitals there are overwhelmed with Covid19 victims.

Health experts hope images like this underscore the severity of Covid19 and people start to take the virus seriously by social distancing and wearing a mask or covering.

CVS, Kroger, Publix, Walmart and Target have joined the growing list of American stores requiring customers to wear facial coverings while shopping
