North Carolina has reported its highest one-day spike in new C****-** cases, a development that comes a day after the state entered its second phase of reopening.

In a statement on Saturday, the state's Department of Health and Human Services reported 1,107 infections — around 250 more cases than the state's last highest daily tally.

"This is a notable and concerning increase," said the department's secretary, Mandy Cohen, in a statement. "As we head into a holiday weekend, please practice the three Ws – wear a face covering, wait six feet apart, and wash your hands frequently. When it comes to our health, we need to work together to protect our families, friends and neighbors."

The spike in new cases underscores the challenge that states across the U.S. are facing as they weigh when to ease restrictions designed to stem the spread of the c****av***s outbreak.

You need to put things in perspective when you talk about spikes. In my COUNTY there have been one and a half times the number of C****-** cases and deaths than in the ENTIRE STATE of North Carolina, in my state, 16 times the cases and 35 times the number of deaths. Don't go shaking in your boots over North Carolina; a spike in what is essentially nothing is still essentially nothing.

Actually without a v*****e the more people get infected, get over it, and go on with their lives the better. We know who the most vulnerable are. That’s where are money and efforts should go the most. The experts never were worried about the number of deaths. They were worried about the numbers overwhelming the healthcare system as it did in Italy. The average age of death by C***d in the US is 75. Of course the more we open up, the more infections. What’s the alternative?

There are no better or safer alternatives. As long as the elderly are protected there should be a significant increase in the number of cases but no corresponding increase in the number of deaths.

I agree. The experts actually came out today on Wallace’s (can’t stand him) show and said they were wrong originally. Being outside in the sun and fresh air is healthier than staying in.

Failing? Because people are still getting the W***n flu? Of course they will - as well as the plain old common cold, measles, athletes foot, etc. - every t***smittable disease.

Of course, they could continue quarantine until their food runs out.......

Was this also the day of the greatest number of testings?
Did the percentages go up or down?
