On July 15, Kings Mountain Herald reported the COVID-19 numbers between late-June to mid- July, warning that positive cases could exceed 200 for the city by the end of July. The actual numbers exceed that estimate. While 238 cases might seem low, if the trend continues the number of positive cases in Kings Mountain could exceed the current population in less than 12 weeks. Ac- cording to the Census Bureau, Kings Moun- tain has a population of 10,982. The NCHDDS reported the following numbers be- tween June 15 and July 31: If you take the cur- rent number of cases, doubling them every two weeks, the numbers will look like this: Current week: 238, 2 weeks : 476; 4 weeks, 952; 6 weeks, Date June 15 July 1 July 10 July 31 Total Cases 110 286 477 964 Deaths 2 4 8 15 Total Active Cases 33 92 111 165 Kings Mtn. 21 46 102 238 Grover 4 11 20 53 Shelby 40 103 178 315 Boiling Springs 25 73 128 281 1,904; 8 weeks, 3,808; 10 weeks, 7,616; 12 weeks 15,232. Since we have a population of 10,982, the number would cap there. In a statement re- leased by the Cleveland County Health Depart- ment, the doubling trend continued between July 15 report and July 31. "As of today, there have been a total of 964 cases of COVID-19 in Cleveland County. Of these, 165 are currently active and 784 have recovered and are released from isola- tion. There are currently 16 COVID-19 cases who are hospitalized, and we have had a total of 15 COVID-related deaths in the county. Between July 10 and July 31, the county lost seven citizens to the Coronavirus, an average of one citizen every three days. On Friday, July 31, Governor Cooper's Ex- ecutive Order 153 went to effect, prohibiting the sale of alcohol after 11 pm or before 7 am, saying the Alcohol Law Enforcement Division has authority to enforce the new order. On Sunday, August 2, the NCDHHS updated the number of Cleve- land County Coronavirus cases to 1,019, an increase of 55 new cases in two days. City and county Coronavirus cases continue to climb
