Coronavirus updates: Los Angeles to prohibit gatherings, close playgrounds

Ohio recorded a record-breaking 11,800 new coronavirus cases Monday as the state continued to see an upward trend.

The new daily case number was 300 more than the previous record set on Friday, according to data from the Ohio Health Department.

Gov. Mike DeWine told reporters during a news conference that the jump in numbers was due in part to two labs that weren't able to report their data for two days.

DeWine, however, noted that there are 4,358 patients in the state's hospitals that are being treated for the virus, which he said was a 59% increase from two weeks ago.

"We also currently have 1,079 patients who are in the ICU, which is again far higher than we have seen so far during this pandemic," the governor said.

There were 22,930 new cases in Italy on Monday and 630 additional deaths, the country's Civil Protection Agency reported.

Italy now has 1,431,795 total COVID-19 cases and 50,453 deaths.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Monday that a monthlong, nationwide lockdown in England will be lifted next week as scheduled.

Nonessential businesses and shops, including gyms and hair salons, will be allowed to reopen when the country returns to a regional tiered system of COVID-19 restrictions after Dec. 2.

"For the first time since this wretched virus took hold, we can see a route out of the pandemic," Johnson told members of Parliament, adding that breakthroughs in testing, treatments and vaccines should reduce the need for restrictions next year.

Unlike previous restrictions, the tiered measures will be a uniform set of rules and much tougher. The prime minister is expected to announced which parts of the county is in which tier on Thursday.

"I can't say that Christmas will be normal this year," Johnson said. "We all want some kind of Christmas; we need it, we certainly feel we deserve it. But what we don't want is to throw caution to the winds and allow the virus to flare up again, forcing us all back into lockdown."

More than 3 million people went through airport security checkpoints across the United States between Friday and Sunday, despite public health guidance against traveling for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screened 1,019,836 individuals on Friday and 984,369 on Saturday. But Sunday saw the most travelers, with TSA screening 1,047,934 people -- the highest since the coronavirus pandemic was declared in mid-March.

The previous pandemic record was set on Oct. 18, the Sunday after the long Columbus Day weekend, when TSA screened 1,031,505 individuals.

Last week, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it is recommending that Americans do not travel for Thanksgiving.

"It's not a requirement, it's a recommendation for the American public to consider," Dr. Henry Walke, the CDC's COVID-19 incident manager, told reporters during a call on Nov. 19. "Right now, as we're seeing exponential growth in cases and the opportunity to translocate disease or infection from one part of the country to another leads to our recommendation to avoid travel at this time."
