COVID cases rising in 25 states, but nationwide activity 'low': CDC
https://thehill.com/policy/5402022-covid-cases-rising-in-25-states-but-nationwide-activity-low-cdc/Infections of COVID-19 are growing or likely growing in half of the U.S. as of early July, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates.
Modeling from the agency shows the West Coast, Southeast and South are the primary region for increased cases, though it maintains that activity overall remains “low” nationwide.
The probability that the epidemic is growing is highest in California, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Kentucky and Ohio, among others.

The uptick is part of a predicted summer spike, which lasts from July to September as part of a twice-a-year pattern recently identified by the CDC. The second spike comes in winter, typically from December to February.
