Gov. Beshear: Virus Continues to Surge Across Commonwealth By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen Frankfort, KY - On Tuesday, Gov. Andy Beshear said Kentuckians should be alarmed by the surge of COVID-19 cases in the commonwealth and renew their commitment to stop the spread of this disease before the crisis escalates further. "It continues to be a difficult time in the commonwealth, where every day, things appear to be getting worse and more concerning," said Gov. Beshear. "We are seeing not only a surge in the virus, but more and more of our kids by percentage who are getting it." Families, schools, businesses and community leaders in counties listed in the red zone should follow nine recommendations to keep people safe. All Kentuckians should consider adopting some of these recommendations to help their county avoid the red zone. Today's COVID-19 case report is the highest ever for a Tuesday. He encouraged all Kentuckians to vote safely and make their voices heard today. "I think Kentuckians are really focused on what appears to be a record turnout. I believe this election will be one that is good for democracy and shows that Kentucky can be a model for the country," said Gov. Beshear.

LCDHD COVID-19 Public Information Brief 11/2/2020 By Amy Tomlinson Lake Cumberland District Health Department Please, let's all continue to do our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 by wearing our face coverings, avoiding crowds (especially in confined spaces), social distancing when around others, increasing our hand hygiene, increasing our general sanitation, and by avoiding the touching of our faces. New Cases: We report that our total case count has increased by 87 today: Adair: 8; Casey: 6; Clinton: 1; Cumberland: 5; Green: 6; McCreary: 3; Pulaski: 32; Russell: 2; Taylor: 10; and, Wayne: 14. Our current new case growth rate is: 1.016. This means our total case count is projected to double every 43.49 days. The most new cases we ever added in a single day was on 10/28/2020 when we added 91 cases. It should be noted that, due to the recent surge in cases, and due to a medical absence of one of our key staff, we are behind entering a significant number of cases into the state system. While our local numbers are current (as reported in our news briefs, and on our webpages), the numbers reported by the Governor's Office and posted on the state's COVID-19 webpage will be significantly off. We have reported this through the State Department for Public Health to the Governor's Office. In any event, please utilize our local data for the time being. Where are Cases Tied to: The most common areas to where we are seeing cases tied are (in descending order): Schools, Businesses, Family, and Places of Worship.
