Definitely not holiday make-up numbers; a frightening nationwide surge.

I hope you and yours are staying safe, Marybourg. Those numbers are .1% of AZ's population, and with a five-day contagious period, that translates to one in every two hundred AZ residents being contagious right now. But of course, the real number is much higher due to unreported cases.
