Allegheny's up to 190 new cases per 100,000 per day.

In response to “county health metrics”, Allegany students had the Monday following Thanksgiving off and the remainder of the week’s classes were held virtually. Allegany County Public Schools will announce tomorrow if students will be returning to the classroom next week, according to their website.

The school district started the 2020-2021 academic year with the hopes of gradually rolling out a hybrid model where students attend class in-person some days, and others are attended virtually. However, a little more than a month after this transition began, the county was already returning students to a completely online environment following a staff shortage and a rise in the number of cases, according to several press releases.


They have stopped all county buses for a time. I don't think school will start up again in person next week.

That post was dated 10/26

So in one month Garret County went from 12 new cases per day per 100,000 to 121 new cases... 10x the rate.

Just pointing it out... It is a small county but I would expect after Thanksgiving gatherings that 121 rate will double in a week.

In just a couple days

Garrett: went from 61 to 77
Allegheny: went from 112 to 130
Washington: went from 40 to 44


In JUST one more day

Garrett went from 77 to 97
Allegheny went from 130 to 145
Washington went from 44 to 48




Garret is 101
Allegheny remains at 145
Washington is at 57

MOCO is at 30 and PG is at 37

Practically the whole state is in the red zone, but the western counties are the very worst.



Garret at 121
Allegheny at 171
Washington at 62

MOCO remains at 30
PG C at 41
