NORTHAMPTON Several Hampshire County communities and Holyoke are considered at higher risk for COVID-19, according to the state Department of Health’s weekly update released Thursday.
Cities and towns that remained in the “red” category from the previous week are Hadley, Holyoke, Southampton, and Granby. South Hadley was labeled red and moved up from being in the “yellow” category last week.
For communities with fewer than 10,000 residents, red signifies more than 25 cases in a two-week period. For municipalities that have between 10,000 and 50,000 residents, it means there is an average daily incidence rate of 10 or more cases and the positive test rate is 5% or greater.
