Statewide, hospitals reported 9,178 non-ICU beds, of which 8,048 (87.7%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 68 (0.7%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 1,062 (11.6%) remained available. Hospitals also reported 1,351 ICU beds, of which 965 (71.4%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 31 (2.3%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 355 (26.3%) remained available. By comparison, hospitals reported yesterday a total of 9,171 non-ICU beds, of which 8,089 (88.2%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 67 (1%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 1,015 (11.1%) remained available. Hospitals also reported yesterday a total of 1,362 ICU beds, of which 982 (72.1%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 29 (2.1%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 351 (25.8%) remained available.
Two weeks ago, the 7 day confirmed case average was 87.0, the 7 day confirmed deaths average was 4.0, the 7 day hospitalization average was 175.0, and the 7 day weighted average positivity rate was 0.47% (or 0.65% excluding higher education).

Deaths and cases down day-by-day, along with the estimated active cases count; on the other hand, the hospitalization count ticked up slightly. The seven-day averages, once again, are sitting at their Lowest Observed Values. For now, Massachusetts is doing great, as one of only two states (Vermont being the other) with less than one new daily case per 100k population on the Covid Act Now dashboard.
The town of Acton's current Google Data Studio dashboard is showing zero active and 981 cumulative cases as of June 24. There have been no new cases shown on this dashboard since June 2. The most recent "newsflash style update" at 11:45AM on May 28, 2021 reported 978 cumulative cases with 3 individuals in isolation, 943 persons recovered and 32 fatalities.
