Those 18 states are: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah.
If you live in one of these palces please go as many extra miles to stay safe as u can as new cases are growing significantly
If you live in any of these States, I advise using Johns Hopkins University of Medicine’s Coronavirus Resource Center to keep an eye on Critical Trends in your state (spiking infection rate, spiking death count) with the country and state map.
If you use the Weather Underground website, it tells you the reported cases and death count of your county (or the closest one if yours doesn’t have a hospital) on the same page as the forecast.
