Summary

Coronavirus cases are rising in 31 states as deaths are up in 20 states. United States coronavirus cases top 3.8 million and United States coronavirus deaths are near 141,000. Florida governor is heckled as Florida reports more than 10,000 cases for sixth day in a row and more than 50 hospitals are now at ICU capacity, including four in Broward County and others are down to one ICU bed. Florida Governor stands by decision to avoid mask mandate. Top HHS official says "there is no question we are having surge." Trump says he'll resume coronavirus briefings despite health officials having to walk back his advice in the past. Trump also touts wearing a mask after downplaying them for months, calling it "patriotic." A source says that negative poll numbers finally persuaded him to wear a mask. Trump wearing a mask comes 108 days after his own administration recommended wearing masks. Dr. Birx says that wearing masks, closing bars and limiting indoor gatherings can come close to impact of sheltering-in-place. Missouri governor downplays the risk of kids being infected with coronavirus at school by saying, "they're going to get over it." Early results are suggesting that Oxford's coronavirus vaccine is safe and induces immune response.
