The county Department of Public Health reported 1,661 new COVID-19 infections Tuesday, raising the overall number from throughout the pandemic to 3,521,712.
Overall official case numbers also believed to be artificially low, due to residents who use at-home tests and do not report the results to the county. County Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis noted last week that many other people who may be infected don’t get tested at all.
According to the county, the seven-day average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus rose to 8.5% as of Tuesday, up from 6.5% a week ago.
