On 28 July, both Florida and Texas reported record daily deaths at 186 and 223 respectively. Deaths are likely to continue to rise for the next two-three week, as each state continues to report between 8,000-10,000 new cases per day. - California is reporting a 10 percent increase in daily new cases from the average two weeks earlier. The state reported 176 deaths on 28 July, a new record for daily deaths.    - The U.S. is now recording more than 67,000 new daily cases on average over the last week, a slight increase from case counts a week ago, when the average was 66,000 new cases per day. The U.S. has now recorded nearly 4,500,000 confirmed cases and over 150,000 deaths.  - Washington, D.C. imposed a 14 day self-quarantine for travelers arriving from areas where the seven-day moving average of daily new COVID-19 cases is 10 or more per 100,000 people. The measures do not apply to Maryland and Virginia. Those engaged in essential activities, including government work, are exempt. - Enhanced federal unemployment payments of $600/week expire this week. Congress is discussing potentially expanding or reducing the unemployment payments. An additional 1.4 million people filed for unemployment benefits last week, the 18th straight week of at least one million unemployment claims. Halted or rolled-back reopening plans will likely add to this number. ![29 july usa daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/29%20july%20usa%20daily.png?width=600&name=29%20july%20usa%20daily.png) ![29 July cali daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/29%20July%20cali%20daily.png?width=600&name=29%20July%20cali%20daily.png) ![22 July tex daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/22%20July%20tex%20daily.png?width=600&name=22%20July%20tex%20daily.png) ![22 July flor daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/22%20July%20flor%20daily.png?width=600&name=22%20July%20flor%20daily.png) ![GG_CoronaVirus US map 29 july](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/GG_CoronaVirus%20US%20map%2029%20july.jpg?width=1140&name=GG_CoronaVirus%20US%20map%2029%20july.jpg) ![GG_CoronaVirus US LIST 29 july](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/GG_CoronaVirus%20US%20LIST%2029%20july.jpg?width=1140&name=GG_CoronaVirus%20US%20LIST%2029%20july.jpg) **Latest Global Updates:** - Outside the US, the highest number of daily new cases are occurring in **Brazil, India, South Africa, Colombia, Mexico, Russia, Argentina, and Peru. **Several of these nations continue to institute regional lockdowns as community outbreaks spread. - **Poland **extended its international flight ban to at least 11 August. - **Lebanese **authorities extended the ongoing nationwide state of general mobilization, which was due to expire on 2 August, until at least 30 August, as part of efforts to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In particular, Mexico, Brazil, and India continue to have low testing rates, indicating a much larger outbreak in their respective countries. For example, Mexico has half the deaths of Brazil but just 400,000 confirmed cases to Brazil's 2,400,000. Concerns remain about second-wave outbreaks in Europe and Asia. ![29 July braz daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/29%20July%20braz%20daily.png?width=600&name=29%20July%20braz%20daily.png) ![29 July mex daily](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/29%20July%20mex%20daily.png?width=600&name=29%20July%20mex%20daily.png) ![29 July ind map](https://www.globalguardian.com/hs-fs/hubfs/29%20July%20ind%20map.png?width=600&name=29%20July%20ind%20map.png) | ##### **Special Report:**   COVID-19 case numbers continue to rise as the US nears 4.5 million cases.
