MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Public health officials in Shelby County did not mince words Tuesday, saying theyre worried about the direction of the pandemic in the county as nearly 200 new cases were added to the tally in Tuesday mornings numbers.
"Our numbers are increasing, and we are alarmed about that," said Dr. Bruce Randolph, Shelby County Health Officer.
Shelby County added 190 new confirmed COVID-19 cases from Monday to Tuesday, the largest day-to-day increase since the pandemic started.
The last similar-sized increase of 187 cases came at the end of April and was the result of surge testing of staff and detainees at 201 Poplar.
