Coronavirus news, updates, hotspots and information for 06-24-2020 COVID-19 AM Alert
This is Coronavirus 411, the latest COVID-19 info and new hotspots… Just the facts… for Wednesday June 24th, 2020. Cases across the U.S. continue to rise. Seven states reported new record daily cases: Arizona, Arkansas, California, North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee and South Carolina. South Carolina has 26,513 confirmed cases and 673 deaths. They hit their record high on June 20th with 1,155. Cases have declined slightly over the last few days, with 912 reported yesterday. The state has seen rapid growth through the month of June. Prior to May 29th, the state was rarely over 200 cases a day. Greenville County has been the hardest hit, with 3,827, with 2,269 of those cases reported since June 1st. Just yesterday, the Greenville city council voted to require masks to be worn in a number of businesses. Unlike other hotspots where growth can be traced to a major outbreak at a large facility like a prison, factory or nursing home, nothing like that has yet been found in Greenville.
Testifying before a House Committee yesterday, Coronavirus Task Force Member Dr. Fauci, relayed his concerns about the continued surge of infection rate in the U.S. Also, that the country will be doing more testing and that he is cautiously optimistic that we will have a vaccine by the end of the year or early 2021. As cases skyrocket in Houston, adults have been admitted to Texas Children’s Hospital, reports The Washington Post. The Governor of Texas told Texans, the safest place for them was in their homes. Players and owners have come to an agreement and Major League Baseball will start a 60-game season at the end of July.
The European Union is working through guidelines for borders to re-open July 1st. Countries that have or continue to struggle with severe virus outbreaks, including the U.S., may be barred from travel to Europe. Australia reported their first COVID-19 related death in a month. China announced that it has conducted more than 90 million tests since the pandemic began.
The locations of hotspots and U.S and Country diagnoses in a moment.
