A day after entering its second phase of re-opening, North Carolina reported its highest one-day spike in new COVID-19 cases: 1,107.

. Phase 2 lifted the state's stay-at-home order and allowed certain businesses to restart or expand operations in a limited capacity.

"North Carolina is using the data to guide our decisions about when to lift COVID-19 restrictions, and overall our key indicators remain stable," Cooper, The executive order allows businesses such as restaurants, salons and barbershops to be open at 50% capacity with social distancing and cleaning requirements in place. Bars, gyms and movie theaters are to remain closed.

Politicians: “We re-open. Y’all go on out...” Me: (At the house)

If states are already opening up, why are we planning mail-in voting for an election that is six months away?

Lots of that will be happening over next two weeks.

shut up with the lies y’all just using scare tactics and the masses are gullible and deceived

That is not even correlation. The real impact can only be measured when normalized by the number of tests done. Also you must do calculations with respect to hysteresis, because obviously after 1 day such spread will not reflect in the case numbers. That is just completely wrong.

I’m sure they will make out country stop and take stock of our economically motivated decisions.

Not good

That's not a good sign.

Flattening the curve, baby. It only happens once and then everything is fine

whoops

Clearly North Carolina was not ready to go to stage two if the first day they had 1100 new cases. They need to do a lot more testing and tracing.

I am soo surprised..Not!

How can that be? Doesn’t it take time for the virus to incubate? How can anyone believe any news in the United States anymore. We have a pandemic of fake news.

And Trump wants to hold the Republican the convention there in August.

NijayKGupta Doesn’t it take ~6 days before you get symptoms?

Not totally unexpected

Bye Karen !

This is it: we need to cover this relentlessly. It's our last chance to stop the lockdowns from being lifted, and thus our only chance left at winning in November and getting rid of Trump. Getting rid of Trump is all that matters, and our ends justify our means always!

Clearly people weren’t following Covid19 guidelines before phase 2 what makes anyone think people are going to follow the guidelines now especially over a holiday weekend.

are they ramping up testing like most other states? and how packed are the hospitals?

They put in headlines and stories part of it. That way they sell ads. Need to bring back Paul Harvey and rest of the story.

Oh good don’t let Michigan beat you in deaths

Greeting from N.C....where planning for climate change is illegal. Thank goodness for Governor Roy Cooper. Without him we wou,d be far worse than we are now RoyCooperNC

Get ready NC. Things are about to go from bad to worse.

But can this spike be because they opened up a day before? It will take a bit more time, 1-2 weeks. Surely NPR knows this Or is it just a Click Bait Headline? North Carolina, in Red, is doing pretty good.

It doesn’t happen in a day, so the cases weren’t because of any re-opening action.

The Big Lie needs help with so They bring you more fake Numbers repeated by Fake News

Regarding number of deaths. Is anyone keeping track of their party affiliations? And if you can get a family member to attest that they listened to Trump before they die, can he be charged with manslaughter? Serious questions.

NC almost doubled the number of tests per day this week vs the number they had last week. That is why they had more positives. This story is phony, it is sensationalism, and it is needless. NC got more positives from testing more!!!

Lies, padding and more color of law. NEXT. They already got caught padding numbers from AB tests. Do not believe a single number they report.

Yay NC!

Here are some real world statistics!! Died of starvation! Overall, 5.6 million children under age five died in 2016, nearly 15,000 daily (World Health Organization [WHO], 2016). ...

Why isn’t anybody making a big deal about the fact next to none of the states that are reopening never met the criteria recommenced to even start phase 1, let alone phase 2 ? Many of the states are smack in the height of new cases and deaths. Feels like it’s going to get worse

The spike in covid numbers is from the huge increase in testing not because of reopening. No need to push a fake narrative

good grief, enough of these 'highest reported cases yet' headlines, it's bullshit... testing has expanded greatly and by and large is netting infections that already existed, i.e. many/most aren't 'new cases / infections' as the headlines imply....

I saw people testifying of how they made so much money within a week with the help of Mrs janice on BINARY so I decided to give it a try of $500 and now I'm so happy it's real, she helped me to make over $5000 in 7days thanks ma if you want to earn contact her janice75564230

Check the casinos and no masks

That was fast.

YOUR LIFE IS IN YOUR HAND. DONT RUSH IT.

Careless headline, or is it? Implying that the spike was related to opening...after 1 day...seriously!

To be fair, we were barely able, if we even succeeded, to sustain phase one. 🤷‍♀️

This North Carolinian is staying home.

Suprise😳

Let's just throw out the testing and the reporting. Nobody cares. We've become a nation of 16 year olds who scream 'Party!' when the parents go out of town. Except now, the parents haven't left town; they just stopped caring about teenage drinking and property damage.

Huh.. if only there were epidemiology experts in this country that could have provided some advice and guidelines to prevent this....

Negligent public officials? Will there be consequences, accountability?

The more you test, the more cases there will be. Stop letting the media trick you into thinking this is worse than it is. This is just nonesense at this point. Be safe but think logically.

About the demonstrators About the president Who cares

STAY HOME NC.

'OPEN EVERYTHING RIGHT NOOOOOW!'

donwinslow Assuming the 'two week rule' applies, this represents issues prior to the phase II allowance.

If we don't do better than this our recovery will be slowed.

But the real number that would measure change or concern is “hospitalizations”. The rise in the number of cases is only a measure of testing.

Of course... I’m sure everyone was out not wearing mask or social distancing too... I wonder what the common theme is.. It’s really not that hard..

That would be because they have opened testing up and more are able to test. Lowers the death rate down to flu.

...then they had the virus before the state opened, yes? Based on the information released about the virus thus far.

Lol

Big whoop

or is it that more people are getting tested?

What did they expect?

GOP governor in North Dakota gives emotional plea against 'mask shaming'North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum issues an emotional plea for residents of his state to avoid 'ideological or political' divides on the choice to wear face masks amid the coronavirus pandemic. Mask shaming are you kidding me! If people don't want to wear a mask just stay the hell away! The problem is, if they have a 5 year old with cancer at home, they need other people to wear masks, not themselves. Masks keep you from spreading germs out, not from stopping others germs. This message doesn't actually help. This is the right thing to say. People wear masks to keep themselves safe, but others as well.

North Dakota governor makes emotional plea to avoid divide over face masksNorth Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum became emotional Friday as he pleaded with residents not to divide themselves over mask wearing amid the coronavirus pandemic or shame those who choose to wear masks, but to instead be empathetic No they should be shamed. Virtue signaling is shameful People don’t care. But, you are being one sided. Don’t talk to me if I choose not to wear one. It’s a two way street. I wear a mask because I’m currently living with my mom who has stage 4 breast cancer and is on chemo for life. I wish more people would wear masks simply for the fact of slowing the spread. I don’t like it, it’s uncomfortable, my glasses fog up, but my mom is more important.
