LCDHD COVID-19 Public Information Brief 3/2/2021 By Amy Tomlinson Lake Cumberland District Health Department For the district, we added fewer cases today than last Tuesday, so our 7-day average incidence rate down slightly. We now have 1 county in the yellow "community-spread" range, Casey. We have 6 counties in the "orange-critical" range of community-spread: Adair, Clinton, Cumberland, Pulaski, Russell, and Wayne. We have 3 counties in the "red-critical" range of community-spread: Green, McCreary, and Taylor. Statewide Testing Positivity Rate: 4.76%. Deaths: We regret we must report 1 new death today. We have experienced a total of 360 deaths resulting in a 1.77% mortality rate (about 1 in 56) among known cases. This compares with a 1.15% mortality rate at the state level, and a 1.8% mortality rate at the national level. Our hearts and prayers go out to all the families and friends who have lost loved ones. Hospitalizations: We presently have 37 cases in the hospital. This is 1 less than what we reported yesterday. We have had a total of 1,124 hospitalizations resulting in a 5.51% hospitalization rate (about 1 in 18) among known cases. The state hospitalization rate is 4.74%. The latest data shows that 97.78% of Lake Cumberland's ICU beds are filled, and 19.35% of ventilator capacity is being utilized. Total (Cumulative) Cases: The Lake Cumberland District has experienced a total of 20,382 cases since the onset of the outbreak. This means that 9.76% of our total population have been a confirmed case. However, we do not know how many additional people may have had COVID-19 and were either asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and never tested. Released (Not contagious) Cases: We released 48 cases today from isolation. Released cases include: Adair: 5; Casey: 1; Clinton: 2; Cumberland: 1; Green: 3; Pulaski: 12; Russell: 6; Taylor: 15; and, Wayne: 3. In all, we have released 96.7% of our total cases. Active (Current) Cases: Taking into account deaths and releases, our active cases decreased by 1 more than the new cases we added today. This leaves us with 311 active cases in our district across all 10 of our district's 10 counties. On 12/10/2020 we were at our peak number of active cases, 1,341. Where Did Cases Visit Prior to Isolation: The most common places cases visited prior to isolation are (in descending order): Family, Businesses, Schools, and Jail/Prison Related. Of our active cases, 4% can not be tied back to another known case (community-spread cases). New Cases: We report that our total case count has increased by 48 today: Adair: 9; Casey: 3; Clinton: 3; Green: 5; McCreary: 7; Pulaski: 10; Russell: 5; Taylor: 4; and, Wayne: 2. Our current new case growth rate is: 1.002. This means our total case count is projected to double every 311.44 days.
