Orange County’s coronavirus metrics once again hit new lows last week, with its case rate falling to 1.3 cases per 100,000 residents from 1.5 and 1.8 in the two weeks prior.
This marks the second week Orange County has been in the least restrictive yellow tier.
The county’s test positivity rate is at its lowest point to date at 0.8%, while the health equity rate, which measures positive test rates in harder-hit neighborhoods, is at 0.7%.
Both are down from 0.9% in the week prior.
