Three more COVID-related deaths have been reported to Jefferson County Health Department, bringing the total number of COVID deaths this respiratory season to 31.
The head of the UN health agency said Wednesday holiday gatherings and the spread of the most prominent variant globally led to increased transmission of COVID-19 last month.
The test positivity rate percentage of positive Covid-19 cases among total tests conducted stood at one per cent on Tuesday, but dropped to 0.80 per cent on Wednesday.
