(KWQC) - As COVID-19 continues to impact the United States and the world, TV6 is continuing to track the curve as new information becomes available locally, statewide, and nationally.
COVID-19 Resources
In February 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced new metrics to determine a community’s level of COVID-19 risk.
The CDC now looks at three metrics: New COVID-19 admissions per 100,000 population in the past seven days; the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied by COVID-19 patients; and total new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population in the past seven days.
COVID-19 community level is now classified as low, medium, or high, according to the CDC.
