536 New Coronavirus Cases in Kentucky Sunday Sept. 13

Governor Andy Beshear reported 536 new COVID-19 cases along with three new deaths related to coronavirus Sunday.  87  cases were from children 18 and younger.  The youngest case was a 1-month-old from Barren County. The state's positivity rate remains at 4.14%.

Beshear warned that these figures are artifically low due to reduced reporting on the weekend.  He said new cases from the weekend would likely be reported early this week.
