Today’s coronavirus update: Boris Johnson in ICU, US death toll tops 10K

Coronavirus-stricken British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was rushed to intensive care on Monday — as cases of the disease soared past 1.3 million across the globe.

The news came as the US reached a grim milestone of its own, with the death toll topping 10,000 and the number of cases hitting 347,000.

And it may get worse, yet. New data suggests that the peak of the pandemic — when an alarming 3,130 Americans are predicted to die in a single day — is still 10 days away.
