CDC says new coronavirus outbreaks in a number of counties, including in states that have eased lockdown restrictions, like Florida and Alabama, according to a document....also includes persistent hot spots in Midwestern states — including three in Iowa and one each in South Dakota and Nebraska — that are home to major meat processing plants.

The list, which has not otherwise been made public, comes from a document created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and disseminated to other federal agencies.

The CDC ranks the top nine counties and one independent city with rising infection levels. Most of those counties are either in the Midwest or the Southeast, where mostly Republican governors have been quick to reopen their states.

..new cases per 100,000 individuals over the past two weeks, which in this case were the last two weeks of May: Hamilton County, Fla.; City of Manassas, Va.; Dakota County, Neb.; East Carroll Parish, La.; Bullock County, Ala.; Jerauld County, S.D.; Buena Vista County, Iowa; Lowndes County, Ala.; Woodbury County, Iowa; Wright County, Iowa.

I'm 4 hours south of Toronto. Our city was hit hard as well at first, due to many factors, but our numbers have been consistently on the lower side recently.

Are in the GTA?

Right now the hot spots are Toronto and the Brantford area I believe. Other than those areas, I see no reason why things can't start opening up.

I am in Eastern Ontario, but I visit the GTA at times. I didn't think there was a four hours south of Toronto! Windsor is three and half maybe, other than that it Michigan or New York.
