WASHINGTON, June 21 (Xinhua) -- Repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic are still disrupting daily life in the United States, and widening political divides may hamper the country's capacity to solve crises, CNN said Monday.

"Many key aspects of economic, social and national life that were once viewed as smoothly running certainties are out of joint," said a CNN analysis.

The pandemic has left "a complicated legacy of challenges," and some of them are threatening "Americans' economic prospects and sense of safety and wellbeing, like the growing fears of a recession," it added.
