It shows, on PCR (most accurate) tests, most of the cases continue to be in Cameron (48 percent) and Rockdale (30 percent) zip codes.
A graph on antigen (slightly less accurate but quicker) testing shows 40 percent in Cameron’s zip code and 26 percent in Rockdale.
A new antigen cases by age graph reveals the age group with the highest amount of cases is ages 40-49, with 20-29 second, followed closely by 10-19, with the 30-39 and 50-59 age groups following.
