Colorado's first gentleman Marlon Reis, who was diagnosed with the coronavirus last week with his partner Gov. Jared Polis, was hospitalized Sunday after his condition worsened, the governor's office said.

Reis experienced a "slightly worsening cough and shortness of breath," on his eighth day of the virus, according to the governor's office.

Polis drove Reis in his own vehicle to the hospital, according to the governor's office.

"Governor Polis is not experiencing any additional symptoms at this time," the governor's office said in a statement.

Los Angeles County set a new record number of coronavirus cases Sunday, the Health Department said.

The county saw 10,528 new cases and 23 new deaths, according to the Health Department. There are 2,855 people currently hospitalized, the Health Department said.

Los Angeles leads the country with total number of cases, 439,408, and total fatalities, 7,886, according to Johns Hopkins University's Coronavirus Resource Center.

The daily COVID-19 test positivity rate in Los Angeles County is almost 12% -- up from 7% one week ago, health officials said Tuesday.

The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health reported 7,593 new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday, which breaks a previous record set last week.

The numbers signal that "the virus is infecting more people at a faster rate than ever seen in L.A. County before," officials said.

There are 2,316 people with COVID-19 currently hospitalized. That number has gone up nearly every day since Nov. 1, when it was 799, officials said.

"We are in the middle of an accelerating surge in a pandemic of huge magnitude," Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said in a statement. "This is not the time to skirt or debate the safety measures that protect us because we need every single person to use every tool available to stop the surge and save lives.”

The county began a modified stay-at-home order on Monday, putting new limits on gatherings, activities and business occupancy. The order lasts until at least Dec. 20.
