Manchester Upgraded to Red Alert List

November 13, 2020

As of yesterday (Nov. 12) The State Department of Public Health (DPH) upgraded Manchester's COVID-19 infection rate from the “orange” zone to the "red" zone. This means we have more than 15 daily COVID-19 cases per 100,000 people.

The map and case rates above are updated and published each Thursday.

The weekly alert map is also accompanied by a chart that provides guidance on recommended actions based on the alert levels for individual residents; institutions such as schools, houses of worship, and community organizations; as well as municipal leaders and local health directors.

The COVID-19 Alert Map is updated every Thursday around 4:00 p.m. and can be found in the Data Tracker page of the state’s coronavirus website.

Governor Launched COVID Alert CT App

Yesterday, Governor Lamont announced he is launching COVID Alert CT, an exposure notification app that can let you know if you have been exposed to COVID-19 – all without disclosing any of your personal information. This app is only as successful as the number of people who download it. That’s why it’s critical that as many people as possible make sure the app is on their phone – especially in these first few days, and we need your support. Please share this information with your communities.

The app is available in multiple languages, and is available both on Android and iPhone.

Find out more, and learn how to download, or set up the app here.
