Florida on Tuesday reported its largest single day spike in COVID-19 cases since August. 

The Miami Herald calculated that Florida had 20,194 COVID-19 cases on Tuesday. No deaths had been reported for Tuesday, though the Florida Department of Health is expected to add deaths to Tuesday’s figures later. 

In the past week, the state has had a daily average of 27 deaths and 10,770 cases, the Herald’s analysis of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data showed.

The latest data available from the Florida Health Department showed that the state had 29,568 new cases during the week of Dec. 10, more than double the 13,481 cases seen the week of Dec. 3.

As of last week, 70 percent of the population in Florida was vaccinated.
