“reports the state has 34,712 confirmed cases” Why do you continue to lead your story this way. The implication is this is the active “HAS” cases, when most of these are recovered now. “Has” implies current and active. It seems like you are misleading in your reporting HAS HAD would be more descriptive and accurate.
