Gov. Andy Beshear gave an update this week on where Kentucky stands with COVID cases. He said Anderson County, west of Lexington, is the only one of the state’s 120 counties not to have a low COVID community level, labeled in green. Instead, it is set to medium, which is labeled as orange. COVID is still on the decline in Kentucky, and Beshear is optimistic that Kentuckians will have a safe spring in terms of the virus. The positively rate has increased slightly, but officials say this is nothing to be concerned about because the virus strain that is currently circulating is much milder than omicron and delta. With case counts where they are, the governor said there is no need to change any mandates, but that can always change depending on the circumstances.
