In some states, the uptick in infections is prompting authorities to reimpose bans or put a pause on lifting more restrictions.
Video: How long will social distancing last?A Mississippi health official has blamed the dramatic uptick in coronavirus in parts of the US on people ignoring official advice on face coverings and social distancing.
In Mississippi, which saw its daily count of confirmed cases reach record highs twice this week, authorities are increasingly worried. To some extent the increased infection numbers in the US can be attributed to officials carrying out more tests. The chief clinical officer at Banner Health, Dr. Marjorie Bessel, has urged the public to wear masks in public more frequently and practice social distancing as much as they can.
The decision does not reverse any of the reopening measures already in place, which include permitting bars, restaurants, malls, bowling alleys, and other non-essential businesses to operate with some restrictions.
