North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust said masks would have to be worn by staff, patients and visitors from Friday.
The trust said it had 64 in-patients with the virus on 30 June, up from 11 on 1 June.
The new rule applies to the University Hospitals of North Tees and Hartlepool and Peterlee Community Hospital.
Karen Sheard, deputy chief nurse, said: “We all hoped we would never have to make this decision.
“Covid-19 remains a serious threat and we cannot and will not compromise the safety of our patients and colleagues.
“We ask everyone to do their bit by wearing a mask when visiting our hospitals.”
In-patients will be asked to wear a mask while in bed and while away from their bed space if this can be tolerated and out-patients will need to wear masks throughout their consultation or treatment.
