Statewide, hospitals reported 8,857 non-ICU beds, of which 7,512 (84.8%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 409 (4.6%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 936 (10.6%) remained available. Hospitals also reported 1,268 ICU beds, of which 878 (69.2%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 137 (10.8%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 253 (20.0%) remained available. By comparison, hospitals reported yesterday a total of 8,819 non-ICU beds, of which 7,410 (84.0%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 394 (4%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 1,015 (11.5%) remained available. Hospitals also reported yesterday a total of 1,272 ICU beds, of which 866 (68.1%) were occupied by non-COVID patients, 133 (10.5%) were occupied by COVID patients, and 273 (21.5%) remained available.
Two weeks ago, the 7 day confirmed case average was 971.0, the 7 day confirmed deaths average was 10.0, the 7 day hospitalization average was 558.0, and the 7 day weighted average positivity rate was 1.88%.

Sheesh. Deaths up day-over-day and way up compared to yesterday's numbers averaged over the three days covered. Cases down in raw numbers, but still up compared to said average. Hospitalizations and percent-positive also both up. The seven-day averages for cases and hospitalizations are both down a bit compared to yesterday, which I suppose is something. But we're still running over a thousand new cases reported per day, and that's way too damn many.
The town of Acton's current Google Data Studio dashboard is showing 19 active and 1,189 cumulative cases as of October 25. 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.
