With health officials warning things can get a lot worse. Nbc political correspondent vaughn hillyard has more. Reporter: the united states topping 100,000 new coronavirus cases just friday. A stunning fourth wave with the number of infections and seriousness of the moment rising each day. Things are going to get worse. If you look at the acceleration of the number of cases, the seven day afternoon has gone up substantially. The virus surging in states from the west to the east. Cases doubling in more than 40 of them over the last two weeks. This is a class five hurricane.

That we will be guided by the science, following the science. We know we can dramatically lower the cases in this country. We just need to finish the job with science. We are not changing the science, the virus changed, and the science involved with the changing virus. Laura: the science has not changed. Like all pandemics, in the wind down phase there are viral variants and mutations but the science, the immunology has not changed. The variants become more transmissible but usually not more deadly.
