The Indiana Department of Health this week listed the counties containing Indiana and Ball State universities as the highest-risk locations for coronavirus infections.
Monroe County, which includes the main Indiana University campus in Bloomington, and Delaware County, which includes Ball State in Muncie, on Saturday remained the only two counties with the health department’s orange rating for moderate to high coronavirus spread.
Seven counties had that rating last week. No counties were listed with the highest-risk red rating in either week.
State health commissioner Dr. Kristina Box has said the ratings for Monroe and Delaware counties are connected to congregate living settings and large-scale university testing.
Monroe County's total case number grew by 65 on Saturday, and the county death toll remained the same at 36 for the 26th consecutive day, the department said.
Some 44,107 Monroe County residents have been tested, it said.
