Kansas saw a record average of 2,430 new cases a day

Kansas has set records again for new coronavirus cases and COVID-19-related hospitalizations as some local officials report having trouble getting people to cooperate in finding others who've been exposed.

Several counties are reporting having trouble tracing who has been exposed to the virus because other people
won't provide enough or even any information about their close contacts.

The state health department added another 5,672 confirmed and probable coronavirus cases since Monday to the state's tally for the pandemic, increasing it to 109,225. The state saw a record average of 2,430 new cases a day for the seven days ending Wednesday.
