Health experts have warned for a long that colder temperatures forcing people inside could promote the spread of the virus. They have not directed the reason for the increase but point to fatigue with Covid-19 precautions and students returning to schools and colleges. According to a Reuters analysis, 25 states have so far set records for increases in new cases in October. All Midwest and Northeast states have reported more cases in the past four weeks than in the prior four weeks, with the number of new cases doubling in states like Wisconsin, South Dakota and New Hampshire.
