More than 4,600 new cases of the virus were announced on Tuesday in Arizona, by far that state’s most in a single day. The Midwest, which in June started seeing declines in virus cases, is now seeing the beginnings of a resurgence. Six states in the region had increasing case numbers as of Monday. And even in places like Illinois and Minnesota, where case numbers have remained mostly flat, new hot spots have emerged. In Kansas, the governor on Monday ordered residents to wear masks as case numbers lurched back toward their peak levels.
