Massachusetts COVID cases continue to climb, state reports 1,109 new cases

BOSTON — COVID-19 data released by Massachusetts showed cases steadily increasing from their recent dip a few weeks ago, counting 1,109 new cases and 85 probable cases Friday.

COVID-19 cases dropped below 600 under two weeks ago on March 13 and March 15, the lowest number of cases the state has seen since last summer. Since that low point, cases have steadily ticked back up.

A week ago, on March 18, the state reported 630 confirmed cases, or 43% fewer cases than the 1,109 reported this week.
