Orange County again recommending masks as COVID-19 positivity rate climbs higher
14-day rolling positivity rate sits at 7.78%, mayor says
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – Orange County leaders are once again recommending everyone to wear a mask when in crowded, indoor locations regardless of whether they are vaccinated. This guidance comes as Orange County’s positivity rate has jumped higher in the past two weeks.
According to Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, the county’s 14-day rolling positivity rate now sits at 7.78%.
“Two weeks ago on June 28, it was 4.28%. We are now considered by the CDC the high-risk category for community transmission, that quite frankly is not good news for our county,” Demings said.
