Arizona reports 3,536 more coronavirus cases, 4 more deaths

Arizona health officials reported 3,536 additional coronavirus cases Sunday and four more known deaths.

That brings the state’s documented totals to 98,089 positive cases of COVID-19 cases and 1,809 known deaths.

On Saturday, the Arizona Department of Health Services had reported 2,695 more positive coronavirus cases and 17 additional deaths.

The state’s single-day pandemic highs were 4,878 cases and 88 deaths, both reported Wednesday.

The number of infections is thought to be far higher because many people have not been tested, and studies suggest people can be infected with the virus without feeling sick.

For most people, the new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks.

But for some — especially older adults and people with existing health problems — it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, and death.
