Northampton’s metrics were all unchanged, with 262 cases, 34 total hospitalizations and 27 deaths.

The Eastern Shore processed eight tests in these numbers for a test positive rate of 37.5%.

While the Eastern Shore’s total case count is over 1,000, the numbers over the past two weeks indicate the Eastern Shore has fewer than 40 official current COVID-19 cases. The COVID-19 virus has a two week gestation period, and the new cases reported on the Eastern Shore in the last two weeks from the Virginia Department of Health total 38. Unofficial numbers are in all likelihood higher, by how much is unknown.
