The state said today its Westport COVID-19 case count was unchanged at 385 (369 confirmed and 16 probable) and deaths also unchanged at 23.
Connecticut’s positivity rate today clocked in at 1.48%, solidly above the gold standard of 1% but down slightly from the previous week’s high of 1.85% and still well below the threshold at which Gov. Ned Lamont has said he would consider postponing the upcoming phase of reopening.
The state’s positivity rate, which had remained mostly below 1% for weeks, jumped higher on Sept. 9 and has dipped back below that line only once since then.
The state reported 121 new coronavirus cases, for a total of 59,241 since the pandemic began. Connecticut reported four new coronavirus-related deaths today.
