Second U.S. Virus Wave Emerges With Texas Hitting Record

(Bloomberg) -- Texas on Wednesday reported 2,504 new coronavirus cases, the highest one-day total since the pandemic emerged.

A month into its reopening, Florida this week reported 8,553 new cases -- the most of any seven-day period.

California’s hospitalizations are at their highest since May 13 and have risen in nine of the past 10 days.

A fresh onslaught of the novel coronavirus is bringing challenges for residents and the economy in pockets across the U.S. The localized surges have raised alarms among experts even as they’re masked by the nation’s overall case count, which early this week rose just under 1%, the smallest increase since March.

“There is a new wave coming in parts of the country,” said Eric Toner, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. “It’s small and it’s distant so far, but it’s coming.”

Nurse Daughter in Denver. As I mentioned before,she deals with Homeless and Vets whom are Homeless as well as Chemically edpendant. As of this afternoon,Denver is at 85% of their ICU capacity. And today was a surge day for the Denver area. Things as of 5:30 pdt,things are in panic mode for the EMT's .

She Claims the second wave is now hitting with full vengeance. A side effect with sick patients is MERSA,which has contaminated every ICU.

I don't think this is a "second" wave I seriously doubt the first wave ever really ended... But they all had to have their parties and BBQs and hair cuts and nails done etc. So now the bill comes due and it is going to be a doozy..
