COVID-19 Cases Rose 17% Last Week; Deaths Increased 5.5%

(Reuters) – The weekly number of new COVID-19 cases in the United States rose last week for the first time after falling for eight straight weeks, an increase that health experts attributed to schools reopening and parties over the Labor Day holiday. New cases rose 17% to about 287,000 for the week ended Sept. 20, while deaths rose 5.5% to about 5,400 people after falling for the previous four weeks, according to a Reuters analysis of state and county reports. Thirteen states have seen weekly infections rise for at least two weeks, up from nine states the previous week, according to the Reuters tally. In Arizona, new cases doubled last week.

Los Angeles Magazine- Here’s What It’ll Cost to Be Caught without a Mask in Some Local Cities

Glendale, West Hollywood, and other SoCal municipalities are cracking down on mask-avoiders By Brittany Martin -July 23, 2020 Full article. Local public health officials tried being nice. They repeatedly reminded us of the importance of wearing face coverings in public, even pointing to studies that suggest universal mask compliance could mean getting a handle on the pandemic within six weeks, rather than months or years. They told us about how wearing a mask shows consideration for other people, particularly the vulnerable. But since the nice approach didn’t do it for everyone, some local authorities have decided to crack down with new face mask rules. Multiple municipalities in the region have announced fines for not wearing masks will now be issued. “Our last option was to conduct enforcement by issuing an Administrative Citation, but the risk to community health is too great,” Captain Edward Ramirez of the West Hollywood sheriff’s station told the Los Angeles […]
