COVID-19 Community Levels
CDC has developed COVID-19 Community Levels as a new tool to help communities decide
what prevention steps to take based on the latest data. Levels are determined by looking at
hospital beds being used, admissions, and the total number of new COVID-19 cases.
As of today, Grundy County is LOW.
