The Effingham County Health Department Friday reported 592 cases of COVID have been reported in the county from Friday to Friday.

There were two COVID-related deaths reported during the period.

196 of the cases involved individuals age 40 or younger.

Effingham County has a rolling positivity rate of 23.1% for the seven-day period.

When we spoke with the Health Department, we asked for a breakdown as to how many of those COVID cases were vaccinated or unvaccinated. A Department staff member said they would work on that for next week's report.
