Androscoggin County continues to be rated as “yellow” under the state’s updated color-coded health advisory.

The county that’s home to Lewiston and Auburn continues to have an elevated new case rate of 77 cases per 10,000 residents, more than double the statewide average.

All other counties are green, including Kennebec, Oxford, and Somerset counties, where new infections have declined by at least 20%.

A yellow categorization calls for schools to implement extra precautions while green means the risk of COVID-19 spread is relatively low and that schools may consider in-person instruction.
