A new daily high for the state of Florida – adding another 3,207 coronavirus cases ​to its tally – a record figure. 

The state now counts nearly 86-thousand cases in all — and more than three thousand deaths due to COVID-19.  ​

Florida is leading a surge of new cases being seen in nearly half the United States… while leaders say they see no reason to pull back on reopening.
