From April 26 to 30, a high temperature warning appeared in Arizona, with temperatures approaching 40 degrees Celsius. Residents are looking forward to a significant reduction in confirmed cases. However, judging from the absolute data, the numbers have not decreased in the past few days, but have increased. Everyone is disappointed with the claim that rising temperatures can kill the virus. The reporter also made a detailed observation and analysis of the recent data. The first thing I want to tell you is that the total number of tests has increased since this week, while the ratio of the number of tests to the number of confirmed cases has declined. The proportion of confirmed cases was above 9% before last week, but now it has dropped below 9%. Yesterday it was 8.8%, and today it is 8.7%. In future data, we will publish the necessary data on the detection rate. In addition, judging from the traffic conditions this week, many people have begun to relax their vigilance and have not strictly implemented the stay-at-home order. This is another reason why there is no significant decline in confirmed data. From Wednesday to Thursday, there were 314 new coronavirus infections, 10 new deaths, and a total of 7,962! Arizona's stay-at-home order extended to May 15th! Persevere and consolidate many months of hard work! According to figures released yesterday by the Arizona Department of Health Services, there are 7,648 cases of COVID-19 in Arizona caused by the new coronavirus, 446 new cases, 320 known deaths, and 16 new deaths.

The number of confirmed cases in Arizona may be much higher than the official number. People have reported trouble getting tested, as health professionals face confusion about who should be tested and a lack of testing supplies.
