REUTERS: Alabama, Florida and North Carolina reported record daily increases in COVID-19 deaths on Tuesday , a trio of grim milestones that follows the first nationwide increase in fatalities since mid-April as some US states rushed to reopen.
Florida on Tuesday reported 133 new COVID-19 deaths, raising the state's death toll to more than 4,500. Its previous record increase was 120 on Jul 9. Alabama reported a record increase of 40 deaths and North Carolina 35 deaths, bringing each state's total to over 1,100. Schools from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Fort Bend County, Texas, joined California's two largest school districts, Los Angeles and San Diego, in announcing plans to keep teachers and students from the close contact that classrooms demand.
The nation's 98,000 K-12 public schools are a cornerstone of the economy, providing childcare for working parents, employing 8 million workers prior to the pandemic and preparing some 50 million students to join the US workforce.
