Washtenaw County now “low” COVID risk level, according to CDC


ANN ARBOR – Washtenaw County was downgraded to a “low” community COVID-19 level on Friday, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The CDC no longer broadly recommends mask use in indoor public spaces in communities categorized as having a low risk of local transmission. However, the health agency advises that people make masking decisions based on personal preferences.

Officials advise that people who have a positive test, symptoms or a known exposure to someone with COVID-19 mask around others.

Other mitigation measures include getting vaccinated, seeking testing, staying away from others if you feel ill and making sure indoor spaces are well ventilated, if possible.
