MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — After a surge in coronavirus cases following Memorial Day, doctors and public health experts fear Alabama will see another spike after this weekend’s July 4 holiday celebrations.
In the hopes of avoiding a repeat, health officials pleaded with people to use caution by avoiding large crowds and wearing masks over their mouths and noses while in public spaces.
