The United States has been the worst-hit country with the virus with the death toll mounting to 217,754 and over 7,977,000 COVID-19 cases.

Canada which has also been badly hit by the virus has 193,000 COVID-19 cases and nearly 9,750 deaths. Trudeau had earlier acknowledged that "second wave is really exhausting" while saying that it was "frustrating for everyone to have to keep going".

The Canadian prime minister had earlier said that the country was at a "tipping point" in its fight against the pandemic with increases in new cases putting enormous pressure on hospitals and health care workers.

Canada's Ontario and Quebec region have recorded the highest number of coronavirus cases with authorities shutting gyms and cinemas. Restaurants have also been banned from serving food indoor in &nbsp;Toronto, Peel and Ottawa with the measures set to last for 28 days which kicked-in last week.
