After announcing over 1,100 new cases of COVID-19 this weekend,Governor Andy Beshear hinted at new restrictions after his meeting with White House Coronavirus coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx on Sunday. Beshear said that both Kentucky state officials and those from the White House agree that new steps must be taken to avoid another rise in cases. Saturday, Beshear announced 836 new cases, and 316 on Sunday. This week’s data is expected to reflect whether or not Governor Beshear’s mask mandate has done anything to slow the spread of the virus.
