Florida sets one-day record with over 15,000 new Covid-19 cases, more than most countries

Florida reported a record increase of more than 15,000 new cases of Covid-19 in 24 hours on Sunday, as the Trump administration renewed its push for schools to reopen and anti-mask protests were planned in Michigan and Missouri.

If Florida were a country, it would rank fourth in the world for the most number of new cases in a day behind the United States, Brazil, and India, according to a Reuters analysis.
