Oklahoma just reported its highest single-day increase in new C-19 cases, after 3 weeks of rising #s

Oklahoma reported its highest daily coronavirus caseload on Monday since the outbreak began: a record 478 new cases.

The number topped the state's previous highest, 450 cases, which was reported on June 18.

The new record comes as the virus is spreading quickly across a broad swath of the United States. World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said over the weekend that the world "is in a new and dangerous phase" of the pandemic.

In total, the virus has sickened more than 8.9 million people globally and killed more than 468,000. Of the US's 2.28 million confirmed cases and nearly 120,000 deaths, Oklahoma has reported 10,516 cases and 369 deaths, according to the state's department of health. Oklahoma City and Tulsa have been hardest hit.

What's the incubation period? After Saturday I don't think it's peaked yet.
