Local COVID update as of Friday March 18, 2022

COVID-19 Case Numbers
as of Friday, March 18, 2022

The numbers reported in this article are still being verified as the reporting agencies strive to confirm cause of death, remove duplicates, verify residence, and catch up to a huge backlog from January's surge.

Anecdotally, I am hearing a lot of stories of breakthrough cases, where vaccinated people get COVID. Often they are the only one in their household to be sick. They recover at home, sometimes with the assistance of the new Pfizer antiviral drug. These cases may or may not be reported in the case numbers below.
