CT Covid Update: 68 cities & towns in Red Alert, Phase 2 Roll Backs & more.

There are now 68 cities and towns that are being categorized under a ‘Red Alert’ when it comes to COVID-19 cases being seen.

As cases of COVID-19 continue to rise in Connecticut, CTDPH today issued a public health advisory urging residents in the state to limit non-essential trips outside the home between 10PM and 5AM in order to reduce the risk of further viral transmission.

For a town to be considered in the ‘Red Alert,’ they have to be reporting 15 cases per 100,000 residents. For an 'Orange Alert,' it's 10 to 14 cases per 100,000.

When cities and towns are put on ‘Red Alert,’ they have the option of reverting back to Phase 2. Now, the governor is recommending those towns do take that step backwards.

For a town to be considered in the ‘Red Alert,’ they have to be reporting 15 cases per 100,000 residents. For an 'Orange Alert,' it's 10 to 14 cases per 100,000.
