The region has now seen 423 total cases, with 37 people hospitalized. Four people have died.
The case numbers had been steadily increasing in recent weeks before dropping slightly coming out of the three-day Memorial Day weekend. Since then they've jumped, with 25 cases reported on Thursday and 26 on Friday.
The region didn't report its 100th case until May 1 but has seen three times as many since.
