In NC, it's been nearly a year since new COVID-19 cases were lower than they were Sunday


Dr. Christopher Ohl, an infectious disease expert with Wake Forest Baptist Health, said Friday he’s concerned that CDC s latest guidance may be misinterpreted by the unvaccinated that the pandemic is over even he agrees that those fully vaccinated should be allowed more social activities.
North Carolinians are seeing another potential sign that the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic might have passed.
The N.C. Department of Health and Human Services reported Monday that the state had 688 new cases on Sunday, along with 1,066 reported on Friday and 864 on Saturday.
Sunday s daily case count is the lowest since 431 on Aug. 17, which reflected a data-gathering glitch at the time. Before that, North Carolina had not seen a lower number of new cases since June 9, when 676 were reported. ....

Cooper lifts most COVID-19 social gathering restrictions, but leaves some mask mandates in place


Gov. Roy Cooper said Friday he has lifted — effective immediately — all COVID-19 mass-gathering social restrictions on indoor and outdoor capacity limits while keeping certain mask mandates and recommendations in place.
The end of most restrictions is designed for the 46% of North Carolinians ages 16 and older who are considered as fully vaccinated, as well as the 51%, or about 4 million, who have received at least one dose.
Cooper said it was prudent of his administration to take nearly 24 hours to review the CDC s recommendations and its implications for North Carolina before choosing to adhere to the updated guidance.
Cooper called these latest restrictions lifting steps as great news for the people of North Carolina. ....

COVID-19 metrics continue to stabilize in Forsyth


Forsyth County s daily number of new COVID-19 cases is stabilizing in the mid-40s following what a local infectious disease expert considered as a mini-wave in late April.
The average daily count is 45 over the past 14 days, which represents the lowest level for a two-week span since October, according to the Forsyth Department of Public Health.
The span had been as high as 67 in mid-to-late April.
The N.C. Department of Health and Human Services reported Friday that Forsyth had 37 new cases and no additional deaths.
DHHS lists COVID-19 cases and deaths on the day they are confirmed by medical providers and public health officials, so people may have been infected or have died days before their cases were counted. ....
