CONCORD – The state Department of Health and Human Services announced seven new COVID-10 deaths Friday.
They include six women from Hillsborough County, 60 or older; and one woman from Belknap County, 60 or older.
The state also announced 46 new positive test results for COVID-19. There have now been 5,251 cases of COVID-19 diagnosed in New Hampshire. Several cases are still under investigation. Additional information from ongoing investigations will be incorporated into future COVID-19 updates. Of those with complete information, there is one individual under the age of 18 and the rest are adults with 63% being female and 37% being male. The new cases reside in Rockingham (8), Merrimack (4), Hillsborough County other than Manchester and Nashua (4), and Belknap (1) Counties and in the cities of Manchester (22) and Nashua (6). The county of residence is being determined for one new case.
One new hospitalized case was identified for a total of 503 (10%) of 5,251 cases. This represents a decrease of one hospitalization overall from prior reports due to previously-reported hospitalized cases being removed from New Hampshire case counts after determining they were not New Hampshire residents. Nine of the new cases had no identified risk factors. Community-based transmission continues to occur in the State and has been identified in all counties. Most of the remaining cases have had close contact with a person with a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis or are associated with an outbreak setting.
