This time last year, no-one had been on the waiting list that long.
Andrew Morgan, chief executive of United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs the county's biggest hospitals, said the backlog has been caused by the strain the coronavirus has put on hospital staff.
Across England, year-long waits for routine appointments are at their highest in 13 years.
Mr Morgan said the wait times show the impact of what "they've had to cope with, but just as importantly what the impact and implications have been of a pandemic".
He added that "the quicker we get out of the pandemic the quicker we get back on to those people on that list, because those are real people with real problems, in pain, discomfort and distress."
Police are escorting suspected hare coursers out of the county, after a rise in incidents.
Over 1,000 reports relating to hare coursing have been made to police in the last three months, compared to 1,048 in the whole of last year's season.
In response Lincolnshire Police have issued a dispersal order, which means any suspected hare coursers will be forced to leave the county and arrested if they return.
In previous years officers have confiscated dogs and vehicles to try and stop the illegal hunting.
Police say people hare coursing cause damage to the countryside; threaten and attack farmers and rural communities; and funds crime.
A Lincolnshire Travel agent said it was "astonishing" to hear a government minister tell people not to book a summer holiday this year.
Grant Schapps, the transport secretary, yesterday said "please don't go ahead and book holidays" because "we don't know where we'll be" by the summer.
He also suggested booking a holiday in England was unwise, putting a dampener on Skegness beach holidays this year.
Mark Brewer, the Managing Director of Imp Travel in Lincoln said the comments are "so damaging for the industry".
He said most holidays booked at the moment are flexible bookings to take into account the uncertainty around Covid-19.
Boris Johnson said more clarity for travel and new lockdown rules will come in a coronavirus exit plan to be published on 22 February .
Quote MessageHe's just not thought about anything I don't think. As it is at the minute you're not allowed to go on holiday, everyone understands that. But how they can tell people to not book a summer holiday? It was just astonishing.

Their efforts are further hampered by flurries of snow which wash salt off the road as they melt.
Lincolnshire County Council say they are repeatedly gritting the main roads of Lincolnshire and will continue until the cold snap ends.
Quote MessageTonight I'm getting indications it could be very very cold... Which is worrying because after -7C or -8C the salt starts to lose its effectiveness.
