COVID-19 numbers from the holiday

The numbers are in for the holiday weekend in terms of covid-19. The state reported 4,145 cases on new years eve, 3,124 on new years day, and 1,470 on Saturday. The update brought a higher positivity rate, though health officials were quick to point out that this may be the case due to less testing and labs being open through the holiday. Locally, Hardin county tallied 222 new cases over that time period. Meade county totaled 49 new cases, and LaRue had 24 from Thursday thru Saturday.
