Twelve COVID-19 cases were reported today — eight in the 28645 Zip code, three in 28630, and one in the 28638. Two patients are between 18 and 24; five are between 25 and 49; two patients are between the ages of 50 and 64; one patient is between 65 and 75; and two patients are over the age of 75.

Most North Carolina families with children are eligible for a $335 coronavirus relief payment to help with virtual schooling and childcare costs.

The $335 payment is for individuals with a dependent child who was 16 or younger at the end of 2019. People who filed a 2019 North Carolina individual income tax return reporting a qualifying child will get the payment automatically.

Those who did not file a 2019 state return because they did not exceed the state’s filing requirements (generally $10,000 per year if single and $20,000 per year if married) may still be eligible for the $335 payment. However, to receive this payment, individuals must apply by October 15. For more information and to apply, visit www.NCDOR.gov.
