This breaks the record New York set on April 4.

Florida reported over 15,000 new coronavirus cases on Sunday, shattering the national record for the most cases any state has reported in one day, as Florida’s historic coronavirus spike is now outpacing even the worst single-day increases New York reported during March and April.The state reported a record 15,300 new cases Sunday, continuing what has been a trend of record-breaking case increases.

That number far surpasses the old record set by New York during the height of its coronavirus crisis, when the state reported 12,274 new cases on April 4.Just under 7,500 patients are currently hospitalized, and dozens of hospitals have now run out of ICU beds. But the state also reported a record number of new tests, and the percentage of tests coming back positive coming back at 11.25%—a number much higher than what health officials would like to see, but also the third-straight day the state has posted a drop for that statistic.

The total death count increased by 45, also a decrease from previous days, even as the longer-term average for deaths has increased recently.
