BREAKING NEWS: Utah records 1,117 new cases of #COVID19. It is the highest EVER for the state since the pandemic began in March. @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19
.@GovHerbert told me today's cases were going to be really bad.

Here's the math on #COVID19 in Utah, per @UtahDepOfHealth...

Cases: 61,775 (1,117 new)
Tested: 743,737 (8,559 new)
Hospitalizations: 3,444 (43 new)
Deaths: 437 (0 new)

@fox13 #utpol #Utah
.@UtahDepOfHealth is reporting the rolling 7-day average for positive #COVID19 tests is 726 per day. The rolling 7-day average for percent of positive laboratory tests is 12.5%. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
.@UtahDepOfHealth is reporting 131 #COVID19 patients currently hospitalized. 52 of those patients are in the ICU (39.7%). Statewide, 71.1% of ICU beds are occupied with COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
We now have 402 cases of #COVID19 in schools. Median age is 16.

Here's other outbreak data, per @UtahDepOfHealth... @fox13 #utpol #Utah
FYI, @UtahDEQ tells me they update weekly their #COVID19 wastewater 💩💩 monitoring site.

This is the latest data, as of today. Utah County is currently experiencing more instances than anywhere else. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
.@DrAngelaCDunn says Utah County makes up roughly 40% of #COVID19 cases in the state right now.

@GovHerbert tells me he will meet with his advisors over the weekend and they'll discuss what to do next. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
The good news is there are no fatalities to report today. But remember, @UtahDepOfHealth says hospitalizations and deaths will lag.

Remember, wash your hands, physical distance, wear a mask, stay home if you're sick. @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19

NEW: @GovCox tells @fox13 he will NOT veto any bills passed by the #utleg in special session.

In a brief interview with @fox13 today, @GovCox says he had concerns over the redistricting maps and said "some are better than others." fox13now.com/news/local-new… #utpol #Utah "I have had some concerns about the maps. We’ve share

I’m at a Veterans Day ceremony at @UUtah where @GovCox and @SenatorRomney are speaking. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
Last year's ceremony could not be held because of #COVID19, so they are showing a video to the crowd of last year's honorees. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
The crowd is giving a standing ovation to this year's honorees. @fox13 #utpol #Utah

From @fox13 @ 9: Redistricting is done, but prepare for a potential lawsuit AND a ballot initiative: fox13now.com/news/local-new… #utpol #Utah
.@BBforUT is just getting warmed up. They've been fundraising for their new PAC and I'm told it is already doing fine.

They will target lawmakers who opposed independent redistricting AND are planning a ballot initiative: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah
Tonight, @BradWilsonGOP told me he anticipates someone may file a lawsuit over the redistricting process. BUT he is confident that it will withstand any court challenge: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah

OK, the Senate just PASSED bail reform, sending it to @GovCox for his signature.

They also just PASSED the revised state school board map (also going to @GovCox) and are now debating the Senate map. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
The House chimes are going off so they're coming back into session. They've still got some bills to blast through, including #COVID19 vaccine exemptions.

The #utleg is going all night, kids! @fox13 #utpol #Utah
In the Senate, @Mskriebe just tried to substitute a @UtahRedistrict map.

It failed, but @JStuartAdams stumbled and said he ruled it passed.

Sen. Riebe graciously corrected him that her own motion failed. @fox13 #utpol #Utah

HAPPENING NOW: The Utah Senate is now taking up the @DixieState name change bill. @fox13 #utpol #Utah
.@mikemckellutah urges support for the bill.

@DonnieIpson says the name "Dixie was already used to identify the area."

He says locals want to keep it.

"The idea of ripping away the name of their school is indeed heartwrenching."

@fox13 #utpol #Utah
.@DonnieIpson asks Senate to vote no.

Sen. Johnson says he will vote no, says the president of @DixieState has been telling people "we're going to be Utah Tech University."

"Is it really right for us to broadcast to students across the state, this now the tech university?"
