Cape health officials say a perfect storm of variants and pandemic fatigue contributed to a third wave of COVID-19 cases that filled area hospital beds and closed the doors of the Cape s largest school system for over a week this spring.
By mid-March, the towns of Barnstable and Yarmouth had the highest positivity rates in the state. At one point Barnstable s positivity rate was
10.20%
, more than five times the state average. Areas of the Cape continue to remain in the state s highest-risk red zone.
