Covid -19 cases in Hancock County are rising. Hancock Public Health announced on Friday that the county recorded 69 new cases of the last week, 13 news hospitalizations and one new death. Those trend put the county back to the levels of late April as the second wave of infections was waning. The rate of 83 cases per 100-thousand ranks as “Substantial” spread by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At that level, the CDC recommends that all people wear a mask when indoors in public, no matter one’s vaccination status.
