LOCAL UPDATES TO STAY HEALTHY AND SAFE

Wednesday, December 2

Arizona's number of identified COVID-19 cases has reached 340,979 (up 3,840 from the day before)<https://cl.exct.net/?qs=577d49482857aeea03bb9a4af8c54c8e55ed256196f63e83304d67caacb13a7edfe7b8c1032829fecdf705013b5919b63e883b49765b8247fb75292d9f2236b6>, and the number of deaths increased by 52 to 6,739.

It's Wednesday evening, and this is Coronavirus Watch from The Arizona Republic<https://cl.exct.net/?qs=577d49482857aeeab826ea40762cfa60879581bd7d99f3896a37e6d4902a56a470d4a5eff7c9133017f123c9a96311f8032c36f28beeb30620264bd9b1463275>, where we update you about the latest on how COVID-19 is affecting you and our community.

Gov. Doug Ducey gave a briefing on efforts to combat COVID-19 in Arizona on Wednesday, which included the first new restrictions since the summer surge<https://cl.exct.net/?qs=577d49482857aeeaa15850d94991e4e0a46371a3efc41279d97a63b8a77bbd3565c29b3941196a4d1d8f202bb56aff1f4e21a9456496927127db5f2bd5bf58e4>. The briefing and actions come as cases spike across the state.

"The numbers in Arizona are heading in the wrong direction. COVID-19 cases are on the rise in the state of Arizona, Ducey said.

The governor didn't go as far as health care professionals have urged — including their proposals for a halt to indoor dining, 10 p.m. curfews and prohibiting gatherings of more than 25, among other measures — but he did add teeth to enforcement measures.

The governor issued a new executive order to enhance enforcement of large gatherings, and he also said the state would now shut down businesses who had two substantiated complaints of not following COVID-19 guidelines.

He also loosened the rules for outdoor dining, allowing restaurants to more easily expand their outdoor areas, and said teachers would be among the first people in the state to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
