Marshall, Starke, and Pulaski counties remain in the blue on the Indiana Department of Health’s County Metrics Map this week. That means there’s a low level of COVID-19 spread. But Fulton and White counties are among the seven coded yellow, the next level up. No counties are in the high-spread orange or red categories.
Wednesday’s COVID-19 update showed four new cases in Marshall County and two new cases in Pulaski County, while the total number of COVID-19 deaths in Pulaski County was revised downward to 47.
The number of cases in Indiana’s long-term care facilities remains low. Fourteen new cases and eight deaths were added to the long-term care dashboard this week. A few date back several months. None of those occurred locally. The number of long-term care residents who’ve tested positive or died from COVID-19 has been relatively low since vaccines became available.
