Never mind talk of a second wave of coronavirus cases. A number of countries, including the u. S. , are still trying to control the first wave. Infections worldwide now top 9 million with more than 472,000 deaths. The u. S. Remains hardest hit with 120,000 deaths and 2. 3 million infections. Experts warn florida is fast becoming the new epicenter. The former u. S. Health secretary says the country is still trying to play catchup. We are still reacting. Were not ahead of it. The only way to get ahead of the virus is to way tamp down the cases in any area and then test like crazy before that case appears, Contact Trace and make sure you quarantine. We cant do that yet because were still finding all kinds of people who have the virus. With more now on whats behind the surge in u. S. Cases is cnns athena jones reporting from new york. People are no gnat practicing social physical distancindistan reporter with coronavirus cases on the rise, more states moving to the next phase of reopening, experts are sounding the alarm. Not wearing their masks, not paying attention and theyre not believing that theres a problem. Reporter new confirmed cases nationwide topped 30,000 for two consecutive days friday and saturday with ten states reporting their highest sevenday average including florida, texas, and california where hospitalizations recently reached their highest level since the pandemic began. Florida passing 100,000 cases. Many of those testing positive are in their 20s and 30s. We know exactly whats happening. Young people are going out because they do think theyre invincible, theyre getting the virus and spreading it into the community and its harder to protect people when that happens. Reporter while the white house thinks the number of cases rising is due to more testing, arizona it is around 20 . They show it is real. Ron desantis, a trump ally, agrees. Even with testing, the number of people testing positive is accelerating positive than that. Thats evidence that theres transmission within those communities. Reporter the startling numbers leaves people to lament. You see the numbers from the first phase and theyre shocking. The numbers are going up so rapidly so, yes, i wish we had done this more slowly so we could have seen the data along the way. Reporter nfl players are being advised to stop training together. Moving ahead with further reopening today, georgia where the six flags Amusement Park opens to all guests, washington, d. C. , and new jersey. Were now going inside. Folks have to be careful, obey the rules and this is a big step for us today. Reporter while new york, once the epicenter of the crisis in america, is taking the next step in what is a slow, cautious approach. We had less than 1 transmission rate yesterday. We went from the highest transmission rate in the United States to the lowest. If we see any tick in those numbers we will respond. Reporter athena jones, cnn, new york. President trump is going back on the campaign trail despite warnings not to hold Mass Gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic. After his tulsa rally fell short on crowd size, mr. Trump is off to phoenix, arizona, in the coming hours for a rally organized by students for trump. He didnt wear a mask in tulsa and he doesnt plan to wear one in phoenix. Eight of his Campaign Staffers who attended the rally have tested positive for coronavirus. As President Trump heads to coronavirus, coronavirus cases are spiking in that state as you can see from this graph. Mr. Trump said he asked for testing to be slowed down to keep the numbers down. His staff said he was joking then he was asked about it later. Did you ask to slow it down . If it did slow down, frankly i think were way ahead of ourselves if you want to know the truth. Weve done too good a job. Also at the tulsa rally President Trump used a racest term for the virus. By the way, its a disease without question. Has more names than any disease in history. I can name kung flu, i can name 19 different versions of names. And the white house has since been in damage control mode trying to play down the president s language. Kung flu is extremely offensive to many people in the asianamerican community. To be clear, are you saying the white house does not believe it is racist . To be clear, i think the media is trying to play games with the terminology of this virus where the fact that they let it out of their country. They have never called it the kung flu. Calling chinese coronavirus and the media and your network specifically called it the kung flu . The media and your network specifically have repeatedly used the term china virus and wuhan virus and saying the president has used the term that they never used. We can go through cnns history. On february 9th you talked with wuhan coronavirus, on january 23rd you talked about the wuhan virus. I can write it all out for you and detail it for you in an email. It is not the same thing as calling it the kung flu. Well, there are growing reports President Trumps racist language to describe the coronavirus is hurting asianamericans. Dr. Lena win told Anderson Cooper that every time she gives advice publicly on covid19 she gets racist messages. I get messages saying i should go back to my country and saying its, quote, unquote, my people who caused this virus. I have people who are doctors and nurses whose patients are spitting on them, refusing to be treated by them because they are the ones who are carrying this virus. All of us as Health Professionals do our jobs. I think the fact is it doesnt have to be this way. Our own state and local leaders, many step up and speak out and really the president of the United States should be doing the same. And she aided that for Many Americans the president is the most credible messenger and in this case words matter. Well, dr. Rog kelce is a Board Certified emergency medicine physician. Hes joining us from nape perfectville, illinois. Thank you for being with us. Thank you, rosemary. We are seeing an increase in cases in 23 states and record high hospitalizations in some states. All of this as the u. S. Death toll surpasses 120,000. How concerned are you about this . And of course how ready is this country for another surge in hospitalizations . Excellent question, and im concerned. Im mostly concerned about the upcoming flu virus thats annual and the other viruses in the fall and winter. I juxtapose those that health care is hemorrhaging industry because of covid. Im worried about the Health Care Industry not having enough dollars to go back on another lockdown stopping things that generate cash for the industry. Today everybody that works in the industry are there to take care of patients and this spike in surge is certainly concerning. In my area were seeing less and less covid, but were awfully concerned about the fever and flulike illness coming up soon. Understandable. The hope that there will be enough personal protective equipment. That was the big problem last time, wasnt it . President trump said he never ordered a slowdown in coronavirus testing when he said he would do exactly that when he spoke at his tulsa rally on saturday. What would be the effect of that . Is there sufficient testing in this country right now . It would be catastrophic. Im not sure where he generates his commentary. Thats my position here. I can tell you scientifically common sense tells you more testing is fundamentally the most important thing. That is because we need to know exactly how many people have it. This coronavirus, and, therefore, we need to know the numbers and base that against the numbers of people who are hospitalized and those who die. If we slowed down testing, unfortunately i think wed be in a much worse spot than we were when we began this. And, doctor, also at his tulsa rally, President Trump mocked the wearing of masks and now we learn eight of his Campaign Staffers and two secret Service Agents have tested positive for covid19. What decision needs to be made about masks and the cdcs imminent recommendation on the wearing of masks . It comes down to what americas tolerances are of restricting what they think are their rights. A big percentage of this country overtly cares about how they affect their neighbor and their families and theyre willing to do what scientists think is the appropriate thing to do, which is Wearing Masks as the most minimum thing you can do when you go out in public. If we dont do that and the other half of the country that does not feel like thats necessary, we then need to consider and, again, im not a government spokesman, but i guess the government would consider do we mandate it . Then if we mandate it, will there be social discord and chaos because certain people are going to fight it and resist that Scientific Evidence and then the downfall of social chaos in the streets which were unfortunately all too familiar with lately. We are seeing it mandated in california, in miami, in phoenix and the Science Behind it, as you say, is that it clearly does protect people. Is it really the only weapon we have right now as we wait for a vaccine or some sort of antiviral treatment, is the mask the only way we can live as normal a life as possible . It is one component. The other component is paying special attention to our just personal hygiene. Part of how we have advised families is we simply recommend you need to shower vigorously and clean yourselves vigorously before you expose yourself to more vulnerable family members. Subsequently, if youre around family members and you have to leave the home, you make a decision that you dont go back to the household for a couple of days to control the spread and contamination of that household. We need to be very conscious about our own hygiene. This will only help the spread of the flu and other viruses. We have to remember there are other viruses were not talking about and this will help control those as well. Thats a very important point. Dr. Rog kelce, thank you very much for joining us. We do appreciate it. Thanks for having me, rosemary. Theres nowhere on this planet seeing more new coronavirus cases right now than brazil.

They said in a briefing monday, regional outbreaks are occurring and more are expected. Cnns Paula Hancocks is in seoul, south korea. She joins us live. Good to see you, paula. Once haled a success in containing the coronavirus, south core reis a dealing with the second wave. A wakeup call to all of us. What is the latest on all of this . Rosemary, weve had some clarification from koreas cdc in a briefing saying this follows a different standard when declaring a second wave to the world health organization. So the reason they believe this is the second wave is because it is a different region and theyre looking at the flow of spread as well. The fact that these regional outbreaks now are in the capitol in seoul. So what they said is they believe the first outbreak and the first wave was from february to april, much of that was in the southeast of the country. Then the numbers decreased significantly dew in large part to mass testing, to contact tracing. South korea was internationally praised for. They say after the may holiday when some of these restrictions in social distancing was relaxed, that is when they were the regional outbreaks. They say its not a large scale infection but regional clusters and they say that is why they believe that this is the second wave. Now we know from seouls mayor, he has been giving briefings as well and says they are trying to figure out if they should be increasing the social distancing that they have quite recently relaxed saying that if the number of local infections within seoul itself rises above 30 for three consecutive days, then he believes it is necessary to put social distancing back in place. All right. Well watch to see what happens there in south korea. Paula hancocks joining us from seoul. Many thanks. In england Prime MinisterBoris Johnson is set to further ease lockdown restrictions. A government source tells cnn cinemas and museums will be able to gradually open up with strict guidelines in place. Anna stewart is in london. She joins us live. Good to see you, anna. Of course, it is a particularly difficult balancing act here, isnt it . Opening up the country when were seeing other parts of the world witnessing the surges in cases for doing exactly that. So how will this work . Reporter good morning, rosemary. I think the u. K. Will be looking very closely at other countries and how theyre dealing with outbreaks that happen as you start to ease lockdown rules. All of the announcements will be caveated with a warning that lockdown could be reimposed either in small locations or more generally across the nation should that transmission of the virus increase. We expect the Prime Minister to outline in two or three hours time what businesses can reopen on july 4th. On the list at the current moment we think that will be pubs, restaurants, bars, cinemas, even art galleries. Not just which businesses can reopen but how can they reopen. We do expect some sort of government guidelines in terms of what measures need to be in place within those businesses and perhaps the biggest announcement that well get today is a reduction on social distancing rules. This will be really key for many businesses, particularly in the hospitality sector. Currently the social distancing rule is two meters in the u. K. We think it may get reduced to one meter for the big reopening on july 4th. Literally watch this space. Rosemary. Anna stewart joining us live from london. Many thanks. U. S.
