The drive-through testing from the Eastern Shore Community College numbers have been mostly reported in Thursday morning’s report and Accomack reported 48 new COVID-19 cases, bringing its overall case total to 593. Northampton County added 10 new cases in Thursday’s report, which brings its total to 184.
