LOS ANGELES - California and Texas both marked record spikes in new COVID-19 infections on Monday, a Reuters tally showed, as Los Angeles reported an “alarming” one-day surge in America’s second-largest city that put it over 100,000 cases.

“Otherwise, we are quickly moving toward overwhelming our healthcare system and seeing even more devastating illness and death,” Ferrer said. California is among a number of U.S. states including Florida, Texas and Arizona battling a new wave of infections as the nation emerges from weeks of clamp-downs on residents and businesses.

People could not skip one summer without fun. They prefered to act irresponsibly to make this the last summer for the most valnurable.

western media is more worried about the new 19 cases reported in CHINA not the 40,000 reported in Divided States of America.

Ignorance and it’s glorification, is the greatest enemy of this century

They are not as sick as the patients back in March and April They are all younger patients They are in the age range of the protestors and rioters ICU Covid patients are lower than expected

Curious about the video used showing an ICU.... Most of the new cases aren't in the ICU nor will require one. Did pple think there wasn't going to be spikes? Additionally where's the footage of thousands in the streets rioting oh ok.

gee it couldn't have anything to do with all those protests going on in LA at the time could it? i wonder.... 😑 those protests had to be the spike we are seeing coming up

OMG. Why why why😞😞😞

Don’t buy into the panic.

You'd think suburbs would have less transmissibility than high-density cities like NYC.

The only thing alarmist is your reporting. Excess deaths are nearly at zero. More testing and large numbers of young people with little or no symptoms are driving up case counts. Deaths remain low, which is why everyone stopped reporting them. Its a real virus on its way out.

And just how are they testing all these people I know people who were unable to get tested after showing up at ER with symptoms. What’s the test accuracy rate?

New sons actions DESTROYS lives’

Trump did this. It takes 2 generations for herd immunity. He is a mobster thug. Nothing more.

Trump is doing a so so great job.

More important’ how many in ICU? How many deaths?

NCDCgov

Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait .... wait. Imma need all these GOP governors to denounce those trashy “open the economy” gun-toting Confederate flag-filled demonstrations like right now. Say it was a mistake. Say it. Say it louder for the people in the back.

Too little waaaaay too late!

Told ya so!

Why? What virus? You all said it wasn’t real! It was made up by Democrats!

Too little too late dougducey up next. Body bags and refrigerated trailers. Sad stupid man.

I’m glad I moved away from Phoenix. The response to Covid there should be illegal.

2 steps forward — 3 steps backwards

Doug looks like Paul Lassiter in Spin City. The character fits, he is running a sit show.

Are the rightwing gun nuts going to storm the Arizona Capitol building like they did in Michigan?

He wanted to be in step with the trump regime to win some party points, so he opened too early. Hell, he even allowed a “trump rally” a few days ago. Now he’s concern about Arizonans? The irresponsibly of these idiots can’t end soon enough.

More proof Republicans can’t govern, only whine & complain.

dougducey. You should make it mandated that any public place of business is to mop and sanitize floors every hour or so. I'd also close public restrooms and look into AC units and air circulation. I've also noticed door should be left open or automatic during business hours.

I had hope Ducey would do the right thing for AZ. Unfortunately, as soon as Trump came to AZ, he completely acquiesces to the dark side. What a disgrace, disappointment, and sad situation for all us In Arizona.

Let me guess, he's also *suggesting* masks. Too bad for citizens of AZ he didn't implement 60-90 days ago.

Smart, brave decision! Covid_19

Your state is a hospital for another country. The solution punish the citizens of Arizona.

Just bring your gym equipment to the protest

Republicans in Arizona would rather eat doorknobs than wear a mask. 😷

Great. Now we call for his resignation. He’s only 5 months too late. His DES is in shambles. Infection rates are soaring. And he welcomes Trumps propaganda rallies in the height of the pandemic. Doucey is a failure to Arizona.

GOP governors wanted poltical points from the 45th, now they are going to hurt the economies of their states because of the false restarts.

Backpedaling from GOP. Possibly the most incompetent version of a Republican Party ever.

Dufus Ducey chose Politics over his People he swore to protect.

US is NO1

Bad for the workers about to get kicked off of unemployment great for the corporations who’ve reaped billions in profits.

And yet evictions still continue in all of these States. They don't care how many of us die as long as their wealth is maintained.

FearPorn

We opened and testing is up. It was an expected outcome. Everyone relax.

All by design and plan. That’s why the country leaders allowed the protests. To keep this fake pandemic going. If ppl need to social distance so bad & this “virus” is so bad, why allow ANY protests? Police out there kneeling taking pics & shyt. Really sad ppl can’t see this is bs

realDonaldTrump ICYMI

We never should have unclamped in the first place

its all damn lies!!!

Shocking! No one could have seen it coming

Credit for finally mentioning CA. Still no added context of age/death rate (ie connection to protests) in your headline
