U.S. Cases Swell; New York State Reports One Death: Virus Update
(Bloomberg) -- The U.S. reported the most cases since mid-May, as the delta variant takes hold in less vaccinated areas of the nation. Anthony Fauci, the top U.S. infectious disease specialist, said “ideological rigidity” is preventing people from getting Covid-19 shots and voiced frustration at the struggle to boost vaccination rates.

Eric Adams, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York City, said he’d recommend that vaccinated residents also wear masks in public indoor settings given the spread of the delta variant. The U.K. government plans to issue guidance that people are expected to continue wearing masks in many public settings even after mandates are lifted in England.

Box Office Record Set 
More than 80% of North American movie theaters were open this weekend, setting a pandemic record for box office sales, Comscore reported. At the start of the year, 35% of theaters were open. This weekend, “Black Widow,” a Disney film starring Scarlett Johansson as a former KGB assassin, broke the pandemic record, generating $80 million in U.S. and Canadian theaters. It also drew more than $60 million from viewers who paid $30 to watch it at home, Disney reported.

L.A. Cases Hit 4-Month High 
Los Angeles County added 1,113 new cases, the highest in four months, as health officials warned of the spread of the delta variant.

New cases also exceeded 1,000 for a third straight day, with the positive test rate at 2.5%. On Friday, the county said its case loads doubled from a week earlier. Four new deaths were added. Statewide, California’s test positivity rate stands at 2.3%, one of the highest levels since early March.

South Africa Extends Restrictions 
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa extended bans on alcohol sales and most public gatherings for two weeks as the government struggles to bring a third wave of coronavirus infections under control.

The country will remain on virus alert level 4, the second-highest, although there will be adjustments to some curbs, including allowing restaurants to resume operating at half their seating capacity and gyms to reopen, Ramaphosa said Sunday in a televised address. A night-time curfew will remain in place from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. and schools will remain closed until July 26.

“We have had to make difficult decisions, knowing that almost every decision carries a cost to the economy and society,” Ramaphosa said. “We remain committed to do all that we can to mitigate the impact of the lockdown on people’s livelihoods.”

France Warns of New Viral Wave 
As the French government warns increasingly of a “fourth wave” due to the now-dominant delta variant of the coronavirus, the number of new cases remains low but is rising steadily. France reported 4,256 new cases in 24 hours, up 60% in a week based on a 7-day rolling average, and four deaths, while the number of patients in need of intensive care continues to decline.

President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to address the nation Monday evening, when he’s expected to speak about the risks of the delta variant and measures to counter its rapid spread, including mandatory vaccination for healthcare personnel.

Separately, a key Macron ally said France must “live with the virus” rather than count on a new lockdown to contain the spread of a new variant of Covid-19.

The country could reintroduce limits on the number of people allowed in bars, restaurants and other venues, and extend the use of the so-called “health pass,” junior minister for European affairs Clement Beaune said on Europe 1 radio Sunday.

N.Y. Reports One Death As Cases Trend Up 
New York state reported one death from Covid-19 on Sunday, even as new cases are rising and the positive test rate topped 1% for the first time since late May. Another 666 infections were reported by Governor Andrew Cuomo, with the seven-day average increasing after a dip to the level of a month ago.

The delta variant accounts for 26% of New York City’s cases, which are also increasing, the city health department reported last week. That is about half the percentage nationally, according to the most recent estimate from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

NYC’s Adams Urges Indoor Masks in Public 
Eric Adams, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York City, said he’d recommend that vaccinated residents also wear masks in public indoor settings given the spread of the delta variant.

“I believe that we should err on the side of caution,” Adams said on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday. “I still wear my mask from time to time when I’m in crowded settings.”

Fauci Voices Frustration at Vaccine Lag 
Anthony Fauci, the top U.S. infectious disease specialist, said “ideological rigidity” is preventing people from getting Covid-19 shots and voiced frustration at the struggle to boost vaccination rates in parts of the country.

Libya Bans Social Gatherings (9:20 a.m. NY) Libya reinstated a partial lockdown for two weeks, ordering the closing of restaurants and cafes and banning social gatherings, after reporting its highest-ever number of daily Covid-19 cases.

U.S. Cases Jump 
The U.S. reported 33,933 new cases Saturday, the most since mid-May, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University and Bloomberg. New infections rose for the third consecutive week as the delta variant sweeps through pockets of unvaccinated Americans, jumping to almost 134,000 for the week ending Saturday. That compares with about 92,400 for the previous week.

U.K. to Ask People to Keep Wearing Masks 
The U.K. government plans to issue guidance that people are expected to continue wearing masks indoors, in crowds and on public transportation even after mandatory mandates are lifted in England on July 19, Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi told BBC TV on Sunday.

Moscow Sees Infections Leveling Out 
 Officials in Moscow believe the city has passed the peak of infections and will start to see levels stabilize, RIA Novosti reported on Sunday, citing the capital’s mayor, Sergei Sobyanin. Russia has reported more than 700 deaths in each of the past six days, with the seven-day average hitting a high of 725.

Israel Suggests Vaccine May Weaken 
Data collected in Israel suggests that the protection afforded by the Pfizer Inc.- BioNTech SE vaccination weakens over time, the Ynet news website reported.
