Elkhart County COVID-19 cases are, again, on the rise, so much so, the county is now in the red zone on the color-coded COVID map.

LaGrange County is also in the red zone.

The Indiana State Department of Health lists other Indiana counties in our listening area in the orange zone.

However, St. Joseph County Health Department data released on Wednesday, Nov. 17, shows the 7-day positivity rate at 10.3 percent, which puts the county in the red zone, as far as local criteria goes.
