The seven day average positivity rate is 0.29%, compared to 0.31% yesterday. Excluding higher education, the seven day average positivity rate is 0.39%, compared to 0.41% yesterday. The number of estimated active cases was 1,419 (91 less than yesterday - down 6.0%). The state also reported zero newly reported probable deaths (same as yesterday) for a total of 364 and zero newly reported probable cases (same as yesterday) for a total of 46,144.

Of the four overview trends (formerly the Page 2 "key metrics"), the 7-day average of newly confirmed cases is 50.0 (1 less than yesterday - down 2.0%), 0% above the lowest observed value of 50.0 on 6/25/2021 and 100.0% below the highest observed value of 6,236.0 on 1/8/2021. The 7-day weighted average of positive molecular test rate is 0.29% (0 less than yesterday - down 7.5%), 0% above the lowest observed value of 0.3% on 6/25/2021 and 99% below the highest observed value of 27.7% on 4/15/2020. The 7-day average number of COVID-19 patients in hospital is 101.0 (1 less than yesterday - down 1.0%), 0% above the lowest observed value of 101.0 on 6/25/2021 and 98% below the highest observed value of 3,874.0 on 4/27/2020. The 7-day average number of COVID-19 deaths is 3.0 (same as yesterday), 0% above the lowest observed value of 3.0 on 6/24/2021 and 99% below the highest observed value of 175.0 on 4/24/2020.
Statewide, hospitals reported 9,067 non-ICU beds, of which 7,777 (85.8%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 74 (0.8%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 1,216 (13.4%) remained available. Hospitals also reported 1,346 ICU beds, of which 962 (71.5%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 25 (1.9%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 359 (26.7%) remained available. By comparison, hospitals reported yesterday a total of 9,178 non-ICU beds, of which 8,048 (87.7%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 68 (1%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 1,062 (11.6%) remained available. Hospitals also reported yesterday a total of 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.
Two weeks ago, the 7 day confirmed case average was 82.0, the 7 day confirmed deaths average was 4.0, the 7 day hospitalization average was 168.0, and the 7 day weighted average positivity rate was 0.44% (or 0.60% excluding higher education).
The daily raw data file used to create this report is available here.
Deaths are (barely) up day-to-day while cases are down. Estimated active cases are down again, continuing a trend that has been continuously decreasing since April 27; meanwhile, the total hospitalization count held steady. The seven-day averages, once again, all set new Lowest Observed Values (and thus, obviously, are all below their values of two weeks ago).
The town of Acton's current Google Data Studio dashboard is showing zero active and 981 cumulative cases as of June 25. 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.
