Yesterday the county reported the single highest day of new COVID-19 cases at 332. Carlsbad has had 12 new cases reported since Tuesday for a new total of 127, of which we estimate 42 are currently active. Outbreaks aren’t reported by the city, but overall the county has exceeded the seven outbreaks in seven days metric for the past week.
Overall, yesterday’s positive cases represent 5% of those tested, and the 14-day rolling average of positive tests is still relatively low at 3.1%. But that number is inching up, as you can see by the chart below. (Here is a link to all the charts and graphs released by the county yesterday).
