U.S. Coronavirus Infections Top 92,000 on Election Day as Death Toll Rises
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The United States confirmed more than 92,000 new coronavirus infections
on Election Day - one of the highest one-day tolls for any country
during the pandemic. Over 1,100 COVID-19 deaths were reported across the
U.S. on Tuesday as hospitalizations reached their highest level since
mid-August. Former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Scott
Gottlieb warns the U.S. should expect to see over a thousand daily
deaths from COVID-19 for a "sustained period of time."
