Heads up re Arizona...

"On Saturday, Arizona tallied the highest number of emergency room visits on a single-day for positive and suspected cases of COVID-19.

Statewide hospitalizations for COVID-19, hit an all time high on Sunday."

"The number of hospitalized COVID patients at Yuma Regional Med. Center tripled over the past two weeks.

"It's a 300% increase... We are expecting it to continue to rise at least for another week to 10 days...We have had a significant jump since Friday."
azcentral.com/story/news/loc…
"The Yuma hospital's ICU is operating close to capacity now, and the hospital is in need of more ICU nursing help.

"In the last 10 days we've hovered around 85%-90% of our ICU capacity...Patients who are going into ICU, they are not coming out soon."

Heads up re Alabama...

"Alabama saw its largest single-day increase in new cases Monday, a little more than three weeks after the stay-at-home order expired on April 30 and two weeks after the state allowed restaurants and bars to reopen on May 11."
alreporter.com/2020/05/26/wer…
"The number of cases confirmed per day in Alabama has been rising since April 30, showing no sign of slowing. Over the past week, new cases rose faster than in 46 other states with no comparable increase in testing."
alreporter.com/2020/05/26/wer…
"Those who say more testing is the only cause for the rise in cases are simply wrong, said Dr. Michael Saag, infectious disease expert at UAB.

“They’re not walking through the hospital like I am, seeing the entire ICU just loaded with only COVID patients"

"As dozens of plants that closed because of outbreaks begin reopening, meat companies’ reluctance to disclose case counts makes it difficult to tell whether the contagion is contained or new cases are emerging even with new safety measures in place."
nytimes.com/2020/05/25/bus…
"The president's order did not address crucial issues like testing, leading many companies to reopen plants or keep them operating without fully assessing whether employees had contracted the virus."
nytimes.com/2020/05/25/bus…
"The tussle over whether plants should test workers has stretched for months, creating critical delays in isolating infected workers. Health authorities concede that asymptomatic employees are still coming to work with the virus, fueling the spread."

New York's "wear a mask" PSA contest was fantastic. We showed a few of the finalists on Friday night's show...

First and second place finishers now announced. Here's the winner...
And here's the 2nd place finisher. Both excellent! I wish every state would do this.
All the finalists and a slew of honorable mentions are posted here.

C'mon, c'mon, every state should do this.
