Claremont City Manager Ed Morris provided a COVID-19 update at Wednesday night’s City Council meeting.
According to Morris, there are now nine cases considered active in the city, which is a slight increase from last week’s five. He stated that the city’s infection rate has also jumped this week, from .71% to .81%. “These numbers are in line with the country and the state of New Hampshire where there has been an uptick in theses statistics,” said Morris.
Claremont’s stats came on the heels of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Wednesday update, which reported 360 new COVID-19 cases and 10 new COVID-19-related deaths.
Morris closed his report by saying that vaccinations in the city are going well, and that Fire Chief Bryan Burr is working with the state to look for a possible indoor fixed vaccination site.
