Our REGIONAL positivity rate went down to 7.2%. Vermilion County’s latest weekly rate (ending in 10/3) is now at 10.5% .
Our daily testing numbers have roughly stayed constant with a few dips and rises, but our positive cases have really begun to rise, this chart gives us a good look at what we are dealing with in consideration of our outbreak of cases. Our rise in cases is not matching our current testing, which means we are seeing more disease.
