Haywood Covid-19 Update
Community January 11, 2022
We added 522 new cases of COVID-19 this week, marking the second week in a row of cases nearly doubling over the previous week.
For perspective, last winter’s COVID peak was on January 4, 2021, with a high mark of daily cases at 198. A little over a year later, we set a new high mark of daily cases yesterday with 208 recorded.
Hospitalizations of COVID patients are also up across the region, and have been steadily rising over the last month.
