Reported by the Blog on December 30th “Carroll County adds 184 new positive COVID-19 cases on December 30th; Highest number reported to date“. Since then the datasets for the local cases had not been updated due to the holiday. The Dataset was updated at some point yesterday and all three days (December 31st, January 1st and January 2nd) exceeded the all time high number of new COVID-19 cases reported in Carroll County with January 1st reaching the all time high number of new cases reported.
Here is a look at the past three days of reported new COVID-19 cases in Carroll County:
- December 31st: 212 new cases
- January 1st: 270 new cases
- January 2nd: 216 new cases
Here is a chart showing the number of new cases from December 1, 2021 to January 2, 2022 in Carroll County:

I know many readers would like to see the reported current local hospitalization numbers and local deaths due to COVID-19 as a comparison. I can tell you that there is not a dataset for local hospitalizations and the dataset for local deaths has still not been updated since December 4, 2021.
I will continue to look for new LOCAL data as it is released.
