Models shows this state could be next Covid epicenter as cases spike

Ten states saw a record number of new Covid-19 cases this week, and one of them could be the next epicenter of the national health crisis.
Florida reported 3,207 additional coronavirus cases on Thursday -- the largest single-day count in the state since the pandemic, according to the state health department. Florida's total reported cases climbed to nearly 86,000, according to data.
The Sunshine State has "all the markings of the next large epicenter of coronavirus transmission," and risks being the "worst it has ever been," according to projections from a model by scientists at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania.
"That makes me very worried because, at the numbers they're now seeing, it's very easy to start doubling and lose control of the epidemic," Dr. David Rubin, director of PolicyLab at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, told CNN
Rubin said model predictions are matched by actual cases in Florida and by increasing hospitalizations from Tampa to Orlando to Miami-Dade County and up the east and west coasts of the state.
