multiple counties here in southeast florida requiring masks, but, again, governor ron desantis, john, doubling down yesterday can. you and i were talking yesterday how florida broke the record yesterday with more than 5,500 cases. on that very same day governor ron desantis had a press conference and doubled down and said he's not requiring masks statewide. john? >> every one of those numbers you go through, rosa, every day. troubling, troubling, troubling and in some cases more troubling. rosa flores, appreciate the on-the-ground reporter in the state of florida. the national numbers do look more troubling by the day. the united states currently averaging 31,000 confirmed infections, the trajectory is a complete reversal from where we were last month. in one month the united states has added 724,000 new cases, 24,000 more americans over that period have died. the world health organization says europe recorded an increase in covid cases this week for the first time in months but look at the trajectories, look closely. you see italy and the entire european union, those are the ones dow

will close beaches ahead of the july 4th weekend, and yet even with the surging numbers, governor ron desantis doubling down on his decision not to implement a statewide mandatory mask order, saying he trusts people to make good decisions. now, in california, we learned today, that state saw a single day increase of nearly 6,000 cases as the public health expert in los angeles county warns the hospital system could be overwhelmed without immediate action to slow the spread of the virus. let's start in florida, which has been setting records all week, today topping 9,500 new cases of coronavirus. the state is now on track to become the next epicenter, nearing new york's highest single-day increase in cases. florida's single day peak number of new cases is also now higher than italy ever saw when that country was considered the epicenter of the pandemic. and the situation in italy was one the u.s. wanted desperately to avoid. cnn's natasha chen is in pensacola, florida, for us. natasha, what is happening there? >> reporter: well, as we talked about just now, the high numbers is causing the state

governor ron desantis digging in his heels, saying that he is not going to shut down the economy, but as we look around the country, like you said, 21 states are showing upward trends of coronavirus cases this morning. and despite that fact, the trump administration continues to downplay the pandemic all while medical experts say that the crisis is far from over. here in florida, governor ron desantis is continuing to reopen the sunshine state, despite seeing its highest single-day increase of confirmed coronavirus infections since the start of the pandemic. >> no, we're not shutting down, you know, we're going to go forward. you have to have society function. >> reporter: florida will now host the republican national convention and could be the temporary home of the nba and the wnba. but as crowds return to public spaces like restaurants and malls. a warning from one woman who says she's one of 16 friends who tested positive after visiting a recently reopened bar in jacksonville. >> at the time, it was more, out of sight, out of mind. we hadn't known anybody who had it personally. go

we've learned of a letter that was written and sent to governor ron desantis by various lawmakers trying to encourage him to require masks statewide. locally, we do know that in miami-dade county and in palm beach county, commissioners and also local mayors making it a law and regulation here that you must wear a mask when you're out in public and this, of course, because of the staggering numbers and this area of the state, southeast florida is the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic in this state. we just looked at the numbers released from miami-dade county alone, and if you just look at those numbers the positive iterate in the doub iterate 25%, in miami-dade county two weeks ago that number was 9%. the number of hospitalizations is up 42% in miami-dade county again. this is what we've been hearing from experts, john, that these numbers continue to rise and that something must be done because they do continue to increase, and again, breaking news here out of florida is that florida breaks its record, again, the latest number of covid-19 infections, 5,511 in just one day. john? >> a

this was the vice president along with governor ron desantis in florida visiting a restaurant of sorts, a fast food restaurant, without masks as that state was beginning to open. and you compare that -- we are awaiting this video, hoping it comes up now -- you compare that to the numbers that we are seeing across some of these states like texas and florida which are incredibly troubling, and thinking about the decisions in which they have made throughout they have made throughout this entire process as to when they were opening up their economies and getting things started and then having to roll things back. thank you guys both, you'll both be joining me later in the hour. we didn't get that video up but we'll get it later in the hour. >>> in california, governor gavin newsom announcing a short time ago that because of the spike in cases, he's ordering bars and night life to close in california counties including los angeles. nbc's gadi schwartz joins us from california, great to see you. talk us through this. >> reporter: good evening, yasmin. look at these numbers leading up to this

still, governor ron desantis doubled down on his requirement not to wear masks statewide. >> there'sent that has to follow and we have a lot of places in florida where that is not a good use of resources. ultimately we have to trust people to make good decisions. >> both of his home senators disagree. >> you have to wear a mask, get more information out, everybody takes it seriously. we have to get rid of this. >> senator marco rubio put it more bluntly, quote, everyone should wear a damn mask. they project almost 180,000 deaths by october. 30,000 lives would be saved if most americans wore a mask. nevada and north carolina have joined a list of states requiring mask. >>> a phased reopening is set to begin on july 11th there in disney and in the other orange county, disney is delaying the phase of disneyland reopening. it was scheduled to open up july 17th but now they don't have a date. >>> in the absence of a national plan, states are taking bolt action on their own to keep the virus from returning. new york, new jersey, connecticut are requiring people from eight spiking states. t

steve: in terms of political capital and organization, with his governor ron desantis bring to the trumpampaign? marc: good question. he still has higher favorable numbers than unfavorable numbers. now, he has taken shock and his favorability rating because of the way he handled coronavirus, oh i should say the way the national news media has part trade -- has portrayed florida and the coronavirus. i do have an issue with some of the coverage. as head of the state, governor desantis is in charge of picking the secretary of state, who oversees the election machinery. and if the election looks like it did in 2012, huge lines of people waiting to cast early votes, the governor at the time, charlie crist, nature to give people more time to do that. the008, pardon me, that was case. in 2012 when governor scott saw these huge lines, he didn't open polls longer for early voting. so a governor has leeway to expand the ability of the electorate to cast ballots in a sort of emergency situation. election supervisors in florida have petition for more authority and more ability to conduct more absent

of positive cases from testing in florida has more than doubled over the past 10 days, governor ron desantisiously had referenced increased testing as driving force in those numbers spiking, but he's changing his tune somewhat saying a lot of younger people aren't social distance distanceing. -- distancing. >> we are also seeing that not only are they testing positive because we are testing more but higher rate increasingly last week but in terms of spread or in terms of vulnerable populations, you know, eventually seeping is cause for concern. >> it's impacting sports and the nba reportedly closely monitoring the data as the league gets back to playing games in july and the baseball season in jeopardy. all training camps have been temporarily closed and some fans say they can understand. >> we all want sports to happen but at the same time what's best like for, you know, the community and what's best, you know, for players -- >> if we all buckle down and hopefully we hit sports in the future. jeff: the world of entertainment being impacted directly by coronavirus. actor and comedian collaps

according to governor ron desantis, he says that many of the people infected are migrant workers and the season here in south florida is pretty much over. so jim, they're heading to states like alabama and georgia and according to governor desantis the florida department of health is now in communication with those states because these cases could be crossing state lines. jim? >> yeah, remember when florida was blocking people from other states that had outbreaks from coming in to florida. rosa flores in miami, thanks very much. here's what else to watch today. >> there's a place where a man born on the other planet makes a singer born to be a star. where a big bang meets a ba-da-bing. meets a guy named bing -- >> can i interest you in the sarcastic comment. >> it's where all hbo makes the greatest collection of movies and shows and new max originals for the family. hbo max, where hbo meets so much more. >>> time now for the good stuff. during the pandemic, a toddler and a train conductor in massachusetts formed a special bond. 3-year-old jake loves trains so every day he would wait

. >> in terms of political capital in organization, what does governor ron desantis bring to the trump campaign? >> that is a good question. he still got favorable numbers that are higher than his unfavorable numbers. so that is an important thing. now he's taken a bit of a shot in his favor ability rating with the way he's handled coronavirus or i should say the national news media has portrayed the coronavirus. i do have in an issue with some of the coverage but that is for another day. as head of the state, governor desantis is in charge of the secretary of state who oversees election machinery and the like. and if the election looks like it did in 2012, where you had huge lines of people waiting to cast early votes, the governor at the time charlie crist made sure to give people more time to do that. later on when -- pardon me in 2008 that was the case. in 2012 when governor scott saw the huge lines he didn't open the polls longer for early voting so the governor has leeway to expand the ability to cast ballots in an emergency situation. the election supervisors in florida have pet

governor ron desantis said the spike has resulteded in more testing. >> really, nothing has changed in the past week. >> reporter: the state banning alcohol consumption in bars friday. one of 11 states now rolling back and pausing reopening plans. >> you will see with the death rates, they're lagging. >> reporter: the vice president painting a much different picture. >> we're in a much stronger place. the truth is, we did slow the spread, we flattened the curve. >> reporter: the curve is actually going up, nearly 40,000 new cases reported on thus, an all-time high and a new peak. 32 states moving in the wrong direction in the past week. >> 20% positivity in tests taken in arizona. >> reporter: just 12% of arizona's icu beds were available on thursday. of those in use, more than 40% occupied by covid-19 patients. >> if we don't extinguish the outbreak, sooner or later, even the ones doing well are going to be vulnerable to the spread. >> reporter: the white house now considering pool testing to find and isolate infections more quickly, because in the words of anthony fauci something's n

governor ron desantis says some of the increase is coming in a much steeper increase in the number of younger people getting sick. former cdc director tom frieden noted that might mean the mortality rate isn't as high. the case number may grow, more people might get sick, but not as many people might die. i suppose that's true. but there are other potential long-term impacts, if it spreads beyond florida, where younger people start getting sick in higher numbers. i start thinking about what's going to happen to schools in the fall if the numb rers are increasing. >> no doubt. john, this is something that i think you and i have talked about almost since the beginning of this. the numerator and the denominator. the numerator, the number of people who died. the denominator, the number of people who are infected. as we talked about, as you find more people who are infected with this that haven't gotten sick or had minimal symptoms, it will bring down the case fatality rate. i think that is clear. we still don't know exactly what the case fatality rate is, how likely someone is to die if t

that hasn't changed governor ron desantis's mind when it comes to masks. is doubling down on his decision not to implement a mandatory mask order saying he trusts people to make good decisions. in california, we just learned that state

now according to governor ron desantis is most of the cases are between the ages of 18-35. according to the governor, young people are not social distancing. they are not wearing masks, so what is the governor doing? he is publishing psas, and he says that he is sending inspectors to businesses across the state to make sure that they are complying with covid-19 guidelines. here's what he is not doing. he's not shutting down the statement and he's not requiring masks statewide. he says that that is going to be up to local governments, local authorities. now the other important metric, hospitalizations. governor ron desantis says there are plenty of hospital beds across the state for this pandemic. however, the state is not releasing a key metric, and that is covid-19 hospitalizations by day. we are getting a sense of what those are looking like by looking at jackson health, jim and poppy. that's one of the largest health systems in the state and in the past two weeks there's been a 75% increase of covid-19 patients. >> let's go to the white house now with our white house cor

el gobernador de florida, ron desantis, dijo que estos casospueden rastrearse en puntos crÍticos comocuomo hablÓ sobre la posibilidad de exigir a los pasajeros provenientes de florida una con entera de 14 dÍas. >> varios expertos me han aconsejado hacerlo, yes a lo que me encuentro considerando. serÍa un giro de 180 grados. pero la decisiÓn estÁ tomada. reportera: con los campamentos de verano abiertos en el estado, los niÑos se han visto efectuados y el nÚmero de contagios entre menores ya elevado . autoridades informaron que 37,211 niÑos fueron examinados y el 9.2% de ellos, es -- dieron positivo. hay 73,552 casos confirmados de covid-19 entre todas las edades que van desde bebÉs hasta una mujer del condado de miami-dade de 108 aÑos. 103 niÑos han sido hospitalizados y ninguno ha muerto a causa de la enfermedad. a pesar del creciente nÚmero de casos, la casa blanca ha minimizado los riesgos y el presidente donald trump dijo el miÉrcoles en una entrevista, el virus estÁ desapareciendo. enrique: muchas gracias. una investigaciÓn del departamento de salud y servicios humanos revelÓ def

that hasn't changed governor ron desantis's mind when it comes to masks. he is doubling down on his decision not to implement a mandatory mask order saying he trusts people to make good decisions. in california, we just learned that state saw a single daily increase of 6,000 cases. they're warning the hospital system could be overwhelmed without immediate action to slow the spread of the virus. and in michigan, patrons of just one bar in east lancing are being asked to self-quarantine after at least 85 people who visited that establishment earlier this month tested positive. the state of texas is also in trouble, surpassing 5,000 hospitalized coronavirus patients for the first time friday, as the governor, greg abbott, acknowledged he may have allowed bars in that state to open too soon. let's focus on florida for a moment and its growing number of cases. positive tests skyrocketing. florida's peak number of new daily cases far surpasses italy's when that country was considered the epicenter of the pandemic back in march. dr. anthony fauci says what happen

we did see that stunning pivot from governor ron desantis there acknowledging the fact that not only are these rise of new cases not a result of just increased testing, but as of the virus that's spreading as well, the governor acknowledging a new type of covid patient not just there but here in texas and other states as well, andrea. that's just a younger individual that is now testing positive for the virus, and that's why you have older populations earlier on that were most at risk, and now as more people go out and about, particularly in states like this where restrictions have been loosened, that younger population is going to be a key demographic to look for as the cases continue to go up, and city leaders try to figure out the best way to keep that virus karened. andrea? >> thanks so much. morgan, thank. and joining us, the emergency room doctor and the department of health and human services doctor, thank you very much. maybe you can tell us to what you attribute these spikes and the fact that the infection rates, the hospitalizations rates are increasing as dangerous numbers

governor ron desantis forced to pause the state's reopen plans. and florida is by no means alone. at least 12 states are pausing or rolling back reopening measures. in texas, governor greg abbott desperately trying to reverse course, shutting down bars once again after admitted he reopened too soon. in california covid hospitalizationed surged in the past two weeks, icu beds reaching new highs. in arizona the governor warns the state is now on pause due to the resurgence of the virus. with the warning signs stacking up across the nation, vice president mike pence used the first coronavirus task force briefing in two months to paint a different picture. >> we have made truly remarkable progress in moving our nation forward. we've all seen the encouraging news as we open america again. as we stand here today all 50 states and territories across this country are opening up safely and responsibly. we're in a much stronger place. the truth is we did slow the spread. we flattened the curve, we -- >> all right. let's begin in florida where the state reached an alarming milestone despite

to the governor, most of the cases are now between the ages of 18 and 35 according to governor ron desantisst of these young people are not social distancing, they are not wearing masks. so the governor says that he's going to be publishing psas to educate the public and also sending in inspectors and regulators to businesses to make sure that the rules are being followed. he is not shutting down the economy, and he is not requiring masks statewide. of course, now we know that the city of miami is requiring masks. and there's another important metric, wolf. that is hospitalizations. now, the state of florida does not publish a number of hospitalizations related to covid-19. however, we do get a glimpse from jackson health, one of the largest health systems here in the state of florida. they report in the last 13 days, wolf, an increase of 75% in the number of covid-19 patients. >> wow. all right, rosa, thank you very much. let's talk to the mayor of miami right now, francis suarez is joining us. mayor, thank you so much for joining us. and as we all just heard, you've ordered residents of m

and looking for ron desantis to be more engaged. to take his head out of the sand. and to realize that we have a healthcare crisis that needs leadership at this time. and that we just haven't been seeing from him. >> why do you think he is not doing something, statewide? i mean, would it make a difference if the president, all of a sudden, urged people to wear masks? i mean, the white house is now saying the president believes people should listen to their local officials. >> yeah, i think that's exactly the case. it seems like here in florida, we need to get permission from president trump before we do anything. that includes closing down our state. i called on the governor to close down the state three weeks prior to him doing that. and he only did it once the white house gave him the nod. and same thing opening our state. we had a very methodical plan for opening the state. very data driven points. and he arbitrarily just went into phase one, went into phase two. there was absolutely zero enforcement, whatsoever. and so when you had all these arbitrary openings,

yet even with the surging numbers, governor ron desantis is doubling down on his decision not to mandate everyone wear a mask in public, saying he trusts people to make good decisions. california is dealing with its own spike. the state reporting a single day increase of nearly 6,000 cases. as a public health expert in los angeles county warns, the hospital system could be overwhelmed without immediate action to slow the spread of the virus. texas is also in trouble. the state just today reporting more than 5,700 new infections. it comes as governor greg abbott acknowledges he allowed bars there to reopen too soon. meanwhile, if you had any plans to travel to europe this summer, you might be forced to reschedule. diplomats from the eu say travelers from the u.s. and other countries with severe coronavirus outbreaks are, quote, unlikely to be allowed in when it opens its borders on july 1st. let's start in florida where the republican governor, ron desantis, is refusing to mandate masks despite surging number of cases. cnn's miguel marquez reports. >> reporter: the sunshine state in a sta

at the state level, governor ron desantis saying he won't require masks statewide. >> hard to understand why. rosa, thanks. >>> joining us now to talk about this and the record number of cases also in texas, dr. shaw, the executive director of the harris county public health department, the third most populated county in the u.s., home to houston, which what they're seeing is down right scary. is it time for mask mandates everywhere? >> first of all, thanks for having me and yeah, this week the county executive judge issued requirements for masks in businesses and that's a good first step and there's a lot that we're concerned about as we see these increases in numbers, both in cases. the positivity rate of testing as well as what's happening in the health care system. that concerns all of us. >> let me ask you this. is there a middle ground between a total statewide lockdown and reopening which allows you to have some economic activity, right, but still stem the spread of this. i know it's difficult to judge and you would have to ratchet things up and down as warranted. right, but that'

, those cases could become the issue of other states pretty soon because according to governor ron desantisviduals who have contracted the coronavirus are migrant workers and they're about to movetoother states. take a listen. >> some of these workers are migratory so -- some of them already left this weekend to go to other states. florida's department states is in contact with georgia and alabama to work with them and give them a head's up about what might be coming down the pike. >> reporter: poppy, i want to share with you some examples that the governor gave because it paints the picture. he said in one migrant worker community the positivity rate was 90%. another location, 63%, 52%, you get the idea. now, like the governor said, now the state of florida is it contact with other state it is li like alabama and georgia because some of these cases will be moving to other states. >> of course, they will. of course with things much more open they certainly will, rosa. thank you very much for that. >>> connecticut's governor imposing sweeping reforms on police in that state. the aclu there

governor ron desantis says the biggest increase is among young people 25 to 34. >> this is basic socializing. >> reporter: florida now banning drinking in bars three weeks after many re-opened. >> we're shut down. we don't have a kitchen. we don't serve food. we can't operated. >> reporter: florida recorded nearly 10,000 cases in a single day. i asked the mayor about this. he said it's the percentage of people testing positive, on sunday 22%. that's an indication of a higher community transmission. sam brock, nbc news. >>> the supreme court issuing a ruling finding in favor of abortion rights. scott mcgrun joins us now. justice roberts joining the liberals on the court again. >> reporter: again. that's a 5-4 decision again. all the other conservatives ruling against it. they were overruled. there was a louisiana law that required abortion providers to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals. the law they argued was simply in place to block abortions. the four liberal judges agreed with that reasoning. chief justice roberts joined them, but gave his own reasoning, pointing out the court

and we are going to trust people to make decisions. >> governor ron desantis -- president,like the think the o economic impact is more of a deterrence than the virus itself? gov. desantis: i would not put it in those terms. we know a lot more about the virus now than we did in the beginning of march. we understand -- if you look at florida, the incidents in terms of mortality and morbidity is dramatic in terms of the ages it affects and the ages that have a much lower impact. my view has been -- that's why we've done so much with the long-term care facilities. some other states did it a different way. i think the way we did it has been successful. that is why we are doing all these things to have skilled nursing facilities that are cobit only to have a safe place for people to isolate so they don't infect other nursing home residents. that is why we have messaged since the beginning of march to the folks who are advanced in years, 65 and plus, those who have underlying conditions to avoid crowds and understand that close contact could put you at risk of contracting the virus. i think tha

governor ron desantis has been digging in his heels all along saying that this is -- >> looks like welores. we'll try to get her back. let's go to scottsdale, arizona. our kyung law is there. same story, similar story in arizona in terms of an increase in cases and hospitalizations? >> reporter: absolutely, and what's really concerning the state health officials here is the records, the number of new cases and the daily record being smashed almost every day this week so

now, yesterday, john, after your show, we got a response from governor ron desantis' office saying thisdue to aggressive testing in communities that have outbreaks, like prisons, long-term care facilities, agricultural communities, migrant worker farms and other areas, but we also talked to an expert at fiu that looks as these numbers regularly and infectious diseases, and she says that this is not just due to increased testing, that this is due to a real increase in the number of covid-19cateses and that it should be of great concern. the mayor of miami-dade yesterday saying that there is an uptick in cases, that he is concerned and also that there's an increase in hospitalizations. you and i know that that's one of the metrix that both governor ron desantis and all the leaders at the local level have been worried about because of those hospitalization numbers. now, john, one of the things that mayor jimenez said yesterday is that for everybody, businesses included, if you think that this is not your business to social distance, to wear a mask, he said that they are going to make sure

but the governor of the state, ron desantis, is not saying that directly. instead of saying wear a mask, he says, oh, well, it would be hard to enforce it. here he is. >> there's an enforcement that ha has to follow in that and we have a lot of places in florida that would not be a good use of resources. ultimately we've got to trust people to make good decisions. >> what should he have said there, dr. reiner? >> well, he's the governor of a state that had 5,500 new cases today. he's the governor of a state that had eight times more cases than new york state and about a 7th of all the cases in the united states. the pandemic is raging in that state. and what he should have said to the people of florida is, i put you before anything else. everyone who goes out in pub luck must wear a mask. think of it this way, going out in public without a mask is like driving drunk. even if you don't get hurt, you might kill somebody else. that's how i want people to think about not wearing a mask in public. it's like driving drunk. the governor of florida needs to make a
