A majority of Greater Danbury area towns are in the grey zone for having 5 or fewer COVID-19 cases over two weeks. 

Danbury and New Fairfield remain in the yellow zone, for having 5 to 9 cases over two weeks, per 100,000 population.  Danbury reported 46 cases in week 1 and 23 cases in week 2 of the reporting, for an average of 5.8 per 100,000 population.  New Fairfield reported 10 and 4 cases, making the average 7.2 per 100,000 population. 

Statewide, three more COVID-associated deaths were reported since Wednesday.  There was one additional hospitalization reported yesterday.  The test positivity rate was just over 1-percent.  Out of nearly 15,000 tests, 157 came back positive.
