Following a week of record breaking coronavirus case counts, the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control identified 542 more people infected with the virus, they said Monday.
The announcement marks a new single-day high in reported cases, the third time in four days that the state has broken that record.
“This comes after a week in which we reported the highest numbers in cases that we’ve seen yet,” DHEC’s Dr. Brannon Traxler said.
Each day, DHEC releases more data about the #coronavirus. Since Friday, SC has reported over 1,000 positive cases. Check out this map for a break down. https://t.co/NbFpTLygOi
