Florida sets new high for daily COVID-19 cases

Florida reported 24,753 new coronavirus infections on Wednesday, setting yet another record for daily cases in the state since the start of the pandemic.

The record eclipses one that was set on Friday, when the Sunshine State reported 23,958 new cases, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Florida hospitals have also reported having 15,449 patients on Wednesday, up from a record 14,000 set two days prior, according the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

The newspaper reported that the high count was reached after 230 of 261 hospitals reporting their COVID-19 patients to the Department of Health and Human Services.
