With the nation setting records for coronavirus cases and deaths, Florida on Thursday tallied a startling 10,870 new cases, the most since the virus was ravaging the state in late July.
California has recorded more than 24,900 new coronavirus cases today. That's the highest one-day total that any state has recorded this year.
It's almost as many cases as Australia has reported over the entire pandemic (27,958).
