Marion, Mattapoisett and Rochester are all designated as ‘gray’ the safest possible designation in the state’s color-coded covid risk designation system.
In the risk designation system, less than or equal to 10 active covid cases designates a community as gray, between 10 an 15 cases puts a community in green, less than or equal to 25 cases marks a town as yellow, and communities with more than 25 cases are designated as red.
The state doesn’t provide the raw active case data used to determine risk designation in its weekly reports, but it does provide data for new cases identified in each town in the commonwealth.
