Marion stays ‘gray’
“Gray”, “green” and “yellow.”
New covid cases lowered in Mattapoisett and Rochester in the week from May 6 to 13, while cases raised slightly in Marion.
In the week leading up to May 6, Marion reported no new covid cases. In state data released May 13, that number rose to two. The town was given a “gray” covid risk designation for the second week straight.
Mattapoisett’s risk designation remained “yellow” for the second week in a row, but the town recorded six new cases in May 13 data, 11 fewer than in data released May 6.
Rochester also recorded six new cases in the week leading up to May 13, down from eight the week before. The town’s ongoing case count lowered enough to shift the town from “red” to “green.”
