President Donald Trump says he plans to resume his daily coronavirus briefings possibly as soon as Tuesday as cases spike across the country.

The news comes as some states, including Florida and California, continue to see booming numbers of new cases. In California, Los Angeles County reported another record number of COVID-19 hospitalizations. After Florida reached its sixth straight day of 10,000-plus new coronavirus cases Monday, the state’s largest teachers union sued Gov. Ron DeSantis over plans to reopen schools next month with in-person instruction.

Today's stats: The U.S. has about 3.8 million cases and more than 140,000 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University. Globally, there have been 14.7 million cases and more than 610,000 deaths.

Meanwhile, Trump met with top Congressional Republicans at the White House on Monday to discuss the next COVID-19 aid package. The GOP leaders touted another round of stimulus checks and a payroll tax cut as possible provisions for their next coronavirus stimulus proposal.

Some recent developments: 

• Tests of Yosemite National Park's raw sewage confirmed the presence of COVID-19. Officials believe about 170 people have been infected.
• Gap, Old Navy and Banana Republic are the latest retailers to require customers to wear a face mask in stores nationwide. Meanwhile, Dollar Tree and Family Dollar reversed their decision to mandate masks at all stores and are now requesting customers to wear them.

Wearing face masks and protective suits, FBI investigators recently raided a medical building in Detroit over an alleged fake treatment being sold for COVID-19. It looked like a drug bust. But they were actually looking into a scheme tied to Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that has become more popular than ever, with religious-like claims about its effectiveness against COVID-19 despite not even having the power to cure the common cold.
