Arizona just reported *4,878* new COVID cases in the last 24 hours--a staggering record. Arizona just reported *88* newly-reported COVID deaths--another staggering record. Arizona just reported the percent positive rate of tests today was *28.3%* -- this is...a numbing number.
Why is this 28.3% positive number so numbing? More than 1 out of 4 tests coming back positive. (Was ~6% in early May) Indicates coming spike in hospitalizations & more widespread exposure. Hard to compare this to NY's height because there was such targeted testing early on.
Vice President Pence just landed into Arizona.
Take this all into account:
Just last week, thousands of Trump supporters congregated--almost none wearing a masks--just down the road.
For the first time, this Sunday, in response to @albamonica, the @VP said: "Wear a mask."pic.twitter.com/NHkqjFCH7t
Two weeks ago as Arizona cases surged, @VP Pence told Americans: “The truth is, whatever the media says, our whole-of-America approach has been a success. We’ve slowed the spread...that's a cause for celebration, not the media’s fear mongering.https://bit.ly/3ePHsO6
Ystdy, @VP Pence said at a time in which AZ does not have the testing or contract tracing to meet the need.
“We're ready & we're more prepared than ever before."
"We're going to make sure that we expand testing...identify people in communities that have contracted the disease."
Yesterday, @VP Pence seemed to push back against the connection between the rise in cases & the re-opening of states like Florida, Texas & Arizona.
But the percent positive rates align with the expiration of those states' stay-at-home orders.pic.twitter.com/GOnXxp19Hf
The health care system is basically in collapse there.
Holy s**t
Praying for those folks
Stay safe man
