The general trend across the nation is that infections, hospitalizations, and deaths are all decreasing. CNN et al leaves that important piece of context off the chyron for some reason.
100% accurate....

You can always tell when somebody has been on Facebook and Reddit too much.

As kingairfun said, this is accurate. But don't take my word for it - IHME agrees. Their data for The United States shows a declining trend line for daily deaths and a confirmed infection count that is roughly stable even as the number of tests given continues to increase.

Where did you learn to think? Just an honest question. If you let media reporters do the thinking for you, I can see how you believe what you say. Fortunately, there are myriad sources that point a different direction.

CDC data has a valuable chart, highlighting various mortality rates. The most useful in my eyes is the one broken into age groups.

We're talking 20x less than the WHO and news outlets suggested 2 months ago.. .0001% for younger people, up to .013% for seniors. It is a range with several different criteria and a "best estimate" column.

I'd pull it up but tired of doing the leg work for people that don't want to research themselves... cdc.gov

As of yesterday’s CDC update, the seven day average of COVID cases and deaths was down from the seven days prior - 3.16% decline in average daily new cases and 13.24% decline in average deaths.
