US coronavirus: Only two states are reporting a decline in new cases

CNN  

CNN — Only two US states are reporting a decline in new coronavirus cases compared to last week: Connecticut and Rhode Island. Ron DeSantis said the state’s surge in cases in the past week was the result of a “test dump,” echoing an assertion from the White House that an increase in testing is resulting in the higher numbers. “We’ve been stressing avoiding the three Cs which are: closed spaces with poor ventilation, crowded places with many people nearby and close-contact settings, such as close-range conversations.” Meanwhile, three South Florida mayors have expressed concern with the rising number of cases: Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber says he is calling a special meeting to discuss how to improve and enforce mask usage compliance, which “has not been terrific”; Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez has ordered beaches to close for July 4 weekend; and Pinecrest Mayor Joseph Corradino wrote an open letter saying private house parties, which can’t be policed like events in the public realm, were the biggest problem in his locale. South Florida, especially the Miami-area, has the most new cases in the state, and it’s mostly due to socializing, DeSantis said at a news briefing Sunday. In addition to potentially spreading the virus to older people and those with compromised immune systems, family physician Dr. Jen Caudle said, young people face their own risks and it’s important they not consider it “a walk in the park.” She’s had young patients suffer strokes, and others who’ve experienced shortness of breath, fatigue or loss of smell and taste long after their recovery, she said.
