Weekly Butler County COVID-19 Report
Based on the criteria for community levels and Butler County’s figures, Butler County is once again at the HIGH community level.
With University students and K-12 students, we expect to see COVID-19 cases increase as a result and likely have an impact on community levels. Past data on COVID-19 and other illnesses tell us that University and K-12 students are more likely to become ill at the beginning of the school year.
We are also seeing a steady rise in hospitalizations in Butler County residents, but are not as severe as spikes seen with the Delta and Omicron variants.
