The county reported 1,944 new COVID-19 infections on Friday, raising the cumulative total from throughout the pandemic to 3,437,648.
The official number of new cases reported each day is believed to be an undercount of actual infections in the county because of the wide usage of at-home tests, the results of which are not generally reported to public health officials.
Another 16 virus-related deaths were reported Friday, giving the county an overall death toll of 33,447. The average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 5.2% as of Friday, roughly the same as the past week. There were 669 COVID-19-positive patients hospitalized in the county as of Friday, down from 677 on Thursday. Of those patients, 92 were being treated in intensive care, up from 84 a day earlier.
