Daily COVID-19 cases in Minnesota were up slightly Friday.

There are 1,640 newly reported COVID-19 cases in the state, up slightly over Thursday. That puts the seven-day average at around 1,700 cases per day, down from an average of 2,400 per day a week ago. 

The Minnesota Department of Health also reported 33 new COVID-19 related deaths, including one person in their late 40s.
