ANNAPOLIS, Md. (CBS/WBOC)- Maryland reported 155 new COVID-19 cases and four new deaths, according to state health department data released Monday morning. It’s the eight straight day the state has reported over 100 new cases.
The state of emergency was lifted in Maryland on July 1, officially ending all COVID-19 related restrictions.
During a press conference earlier this month, Gov. Larry Hogan said unvaccinated Marylanders accounted for 100% of COVID-related deaths in June, 95% of all new cases and 93% of hospitalizations.
More than 3.5 million Maryland adults are fully vaccinated. State officials also reported that the state positivity rate went up to 1.53%.

The state began to administer the Johnson & Johnson vaccine again in April, after the CDC and FDA lifted their pause on the vaccine due to a rare blood clot found in some women.
A total of 268,326 Marylanders have received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, 355 in the last day.
The state reported 76.3% of all adults in Maryland have received at least one dose of the vaccine.
