According to numbers released by the Arkansas Department of Health on Tuesday morning, there were 127 new cases of COVID-19 in the county since last week, with no additional deaths attributed to the novel coronavirus and nearly 130 additional reported recoveries.
Statewide, however, the health department reported 18,253 new cases since Jan. 5, an increase of 8.4 percent. In the past seven days, more than 260 additional deaths have been reported.
The increases come nearly three weeks after the first round of vaccines were delivered to hospitals around the state as part of a massive inoculation effort aimed at vaccinating healthcare workers in advance of a larger effort aimed at the general populace.
