We are reporting 1,724 new COVID-19 cases (7-day rolling average: 395/day) for Dec. 30-Jan 3, and the total is incomplete because of the overwhelming surge of new cases.

This is the first backlog of cases we have experienced since the pandemic began in March 2020. The totals reported will change as cases are entered into the system.

Our response team continued to work through last week’s holidays, and we are getting back on track by doing abbreviated interviews while still capturing the important information.
