Coronavirus Watch: Florida's in rough shape, but it's not alone

Florida recorded more than 10,000 new cases of COVID-19 for the fourth consecutive day, while the World Health Organization raised caution about the trajectory of case numbers across the globe. 

New York City, once a hot spot for the virus, reported no deaths on Sunday for the first time since early March.

It's Monday, and this is Coronavirus Watch, from the Paste BN Network. Here's the news you need to know today, as of 1:30 p.m. ET. 

• Florida's case numbers have been staggering in recent days, but the Sunshine State is not alone. States across the Southeast, like Louisiana and South Carolina, are tallying high rates of confirmed cases. Elsewhere, Arizona was adding cases at a higher per-capita rate last week than New York ever hit.
• Evidence is emerging that it's possible to catch COVID-19 twice, which puts a damper on hopes that "herd immunity" could be a successful deterrent to the virus. D. Clay Ackerly, a Washington, D.C. primary care physician, said in a Vox.com article that one of his patients, a 50-year-old, tested positive in July, three months after his first infection.
• President Donald Trump retweeted a post saying that the CDC, the media, Democrats and some doctors are all spreading lies about COVID-19. The original tweet, from conservative podcast host Chuck Woolery, called the lies politically motivated ahead of the 2020 election.
• Here's where to track case numbers in your state. Across the U.S., more than 3.3 million people have been infected and 135,000 have died from the virus. Globally, nearly 13 million cases have been confirmed and 570,000 have died, per Johns Hopkins University data.
