PHOENIX – Arizona reported six new cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus Monday morning, pushing the state total to 18 since the start of the outbreak.
The Arizona Department of Health Services hadn’t updated the testing numbers on its website since Saturday morning, when the total was 12.
A 13th case was reported by Pima County on Sunday, but that wasn’t reflected in the AZDHS total until Monday.
The latest figures show eight cases in Maricopa County, an increase of four since the last report.
The Tucson area now has four cases, including the one reported by Pima County on Sunday, two more than the last state report Saturday morning.
Pinal County has reported five cases, all in one household, and Graham County has one.
Of the state’s total, 12 cases were diagnosed in state labs and six in commercial labs.
