The COVID-19 spread rate throughout Glendale has slowed in the past couple weeks.
After a spread rate from late July through late August within Glendale’s nine most populous ZIP codes increased to its sharpest spike since February, the growth rate over the past two-plus weeks has in some cases dropped by more than half.
Overall, the number of COVID cases in Glendale has grown by 4.7% from Aug. 30 through Sept. 15, according to the latest data the Arizona Department of Health Services released Wednesday. That compares to a growth rate of 11.1% from July 23 through Aug. 30.
