A look back at COVID case data by ZIP code in Lincoln County
AUGUSTA — With the end of the federal public health emergencies related to the COVID-19 pandemic today, May 11, the Boothbay Register and Wiscasset Newspaper is taking a look back at how many COVID cases were reported by ZIP code.
Per Maine CDC’s privacy policy, case counts for ZIP codes in which the population is less than 50 or the population is unknown must be suppressed and are not publicly released by Maine CDC, and exact case counts are suppressed in all zip codes with five or fewer cases or a population less than 2,000.
As per Maine CDC guidance, the below table is sorted by ZIP code since some ZIP codes could span multiple towns. As such, Maine CDC notes the data should not be directly broken down by town and referred to instead by ZIP code.
As of May 9, Lincoln County has recorded 7,059 cases since March 2020.
