New limits for restaurant­s

-

Gov. Doug Ducey is ordering restaurant­s to work at half of their capacity, but he has declined to shut them down entirely as authoritie­s seek to control a strong coronaviru­s outbreak that has doubled the daily case count in two weeks.

The governor also said the state will increase testing with a focus on lowincome areas of Phoenix as many people report it hard or impossible to find tests.

Arizona continues to report record highs for hospitaliz­ations and use of ventilator­s. After a drop in the number of new cases in the early part of the week, they shot back above 4,200 on Friday.
