MARQUETTE The B.1.1.7 coronavirus variant is believed to be related to the current COVID-19 surge in Marquette County and appears to result in a greater degree of illness than previously seen, the Marquette County Health Department has announced.
Dr. Bob Lorinser, MCHD medical director, said in a news release that between March 28 and Sunday, the county reported 138 cases, for a daily average of roughly 15 cases.
The 18-29 age group showed the highest number of cases at 51, followed by the 5-17 age group with 28 cases. Lorinser said the 18-29 age bracket made up 37% of all cases, even though this group comprises only 17% of the county’s population.
