Maryland has had more than 1,000 new COVID-19 cases for 13 straight days. The 7-day positivity rate has topped 5% for eight consecutive days.

• Key points for today

• Kent County COVID-19 cases increased by 2 to 374, according to the county health department.

• The county’s 7-day average positivity rate is 3.28%.

• The number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Maryland is now at 167,656, an increase of 1,726 in the last 24 hours.

• In the last 24 hours, 7 people died as a result of COVID-19, bringing the state’s total to 4,160.

The Spy obtains information for this chart between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Statewide data is updated about 10 a.m. each day; counties may update data throughout the day until 5 p.m. Johns Hopkins updates its data throughout the day.

** For Kent County deaths, The Spy reports its own tally based on the number of state-reported deaths within Kent County facilities and the number of non-facility deaths. For Queen Anne’s County deaths, The Spy reports the total deaths listed on the county’s website. There are discrepancies among state and county statistics concerning total deaths and facility deaths.
