An additional 362 Connecticut residents have tested positive for COVID-19, bringing the statewide total to 5,276. To date, more than 22,029 tests have been conducted in Connecticut among both state and private laboratories. 

The Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) has issued simple guidance in both English and Spanish for stores and grocery stores regarding safety measures contained in Governor Lamont's Executive Order 7S.
