What Positive Cases Can Expect From Public Health
Maricopa County residents who test positive for COVID-19 (through PCR or antigen tests, not antibody tests) can now expect a text message from Public Health to more quickly connect them to information about their diagnosis and reduce the spread of disease. If individuals do not receive a text message but recently tested positive, they will still be contacted by Public Health for an interview as part of the case investigation and contact tracing process for all COVID-19 cases.

Case Trends
We know from the science that once people begin to interact more, the chances of getting infected increase. So we expected to see more COVID-19 infections several weeks after social distancing was relaxed. In public health we have to balance allowing people to work and put food on the table with minimizing COVID-19 spread in the community. However, we are starting to see indicators that the number of COVID-19 cases is increasing in Maricopa County and we have enough information to know that the increase is not due to just more testing being done.
Everyone needs to keep at least six feet of distance between yourself and others whenever possible and if you can’t, please wear a cloth face mask outside your home. If you can avoid going out, don't go. The less time you spend around others, the lower your potential of exposure is. People who are at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19, like those age 65 and over and with chronic medical conditions should absolutely avoid being around others outside their household as much as possible.
