SunCities COVID case numbers continue down but at slower rate

The Arizona Department of Health Services is now reporting the number of new cases in the last month through Dec. 31. While the ADHS website claims total case numbers are also available by toggling from monthly to total, that toggle appears to not be working properly.

Here are the number of COVID-19 case numbers since the last month for ZIP codes that include the Sun Cities and some surrounding areas, according to the ADHS. Arizona health officials said more than 90% of cases were mapped to the address of the patient’s residence:
