There wasn’t a county among the four in West Virginia’s Northern Panhandle on Friday that didn’t sit in the top two safest categories on the state’s COVID alert map.

All four — Hancock, Brooke, Ohio and Marshall — were at least yellow on the map, which signifies the map’s second-safest category. Marshall topped the four by showing itself green, the safest category on the map.

There once again were no counties in red, the map’s highest-risk rank. Just seven were orange, the second-highest-risk category. Eleven were gold, 17 were yellow and 20 were green.

Hancock County had an infection rate of 12.89 cases per 100,000 residents and a percent positivity of 3.77. Brooke County had an infection rate of 13.67 cases per 100,000 residents and a percent positivity of 3.35.

Ohio County had an infection rate of 17.94 cases per 100,000 residents and a percent positivity of 3.29. Marshall County had an infection rate of 15.44 cases per 100,000 residents and a percent positivity of 2.73.

The Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department announced 11 total new COVID cases over the last two days — five on Thursday and six on Friday. That brought the county’s totals to 3,782 cases and 65 deaths since the pandemic began.

The Marshall County Health Department reported three new confirmed positive COVID cases and two probable cases in its Friday night update. That brought that county’s totals to 2,344 confirmed positive cases, 632 probable cases, five hospitalizations and 62 associated deaths.

In Ohio, the Belmont County Health Department reported 5,285 cases since the pandemic’s onset, with 61 hospitalizations, and 99 related deaths. The latest death, a woman in her 90s, was reported Friday.
