Sangamon County has now climbed to a “high” level of community transmission for COVID-19. That’s according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The county was listed at a “low” level just two weeks ago, then climbed to “medium” before being designated as a “high” transmission area Friday. COVID cases are on the rise around the state, with 29 counties now listed at “high” transmission, up from just 12 last week.
At high transmission levels, public health officials recommend you wear a mask indoors, regardless of vaccination status.
