More than 11.2 million people across the globe have been diagnosed with COVID-19, the disease caused by the new respiratory virus, according to data compiled by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University.

The Los Angeles County Public Health department reported 7,232 new COVID-19 cases for the period of Thursday-Saturday over the July Fourth weekend.

Officials reported 30 new deaths but said that figure was pending verification and was likely an undercount.

The Mississippi State Department of Health told ABC News that it has no evidence to support Gov.

When contacted for information to confirm the governor's claim, health department spokesperson Liz Sharlot told ABC News, “We do not have any evidence that an increase in cases is due to the protests that occurred a few weeks ago.".

Other states have also reported that they haven't seen a rise in COVID-19 cases tied to protests, including Minnesota.

Mississippi has 30,671 confirmed cases of COVID-19 as of July 3, according to the state health department.

More students have been identified in a COVID-19 outbreak tied to the University of Washington's Greek houses.

The university said it is continuing to conduct its own testing and verification of coronavirus cases, which may account for the discrepancy.

A testing site set up near UW's Greek Row in the past week has conducted nearly 1,300 tests as of this weekend, the university said.

The university first reported the outbreak on June 30, when at least 38 students living in 10 fraternity houses tested positive.

Said Trump: "By so doing, we show cases, 99% of which are totally harmless, results that no other country can show because no other country is testing that we have, not in terms of the numbers or in terms of the quality
