Last Friday, the Grand Forks Health Officer’s Dashboard listed zero new cases of COViD-19 in Grand Forks County.
Michael Dulitz of the Grand Forks Public Health said the last time that happened was about eight months ago – July 25th, 2021.
Dulitz said it’s a “promising trend” for the community to see low case rates early in the spring.
“We’re keeping an eye on that BA.2 variant in Europe, but it looks like that variant has been very quick, in and out of communities, so overall, the forecast looks positive for COVID in the Grand Forks community,” Dulitz said.
As of Friday, the dashboard showed Grand Forks County with fewer than six new cases per 100,000 in the last week.
