A spike in COVID-19 cases on the Mid-Cape has reached “outbreak” status, according to officials on the Cape’s COVID-19 task force.

The state has released new COVID-19 data on vaccinations in every Massachusetts town and zip code, broken down by age, sex, and race and ethnicity.The numbers offer a fresh way to examine vaccine equity.

Many restaurants and hotel owners on the Cape and throughout the country thought their business interruption insurance would help them survive the months they had to be closed, or operating at restricted capacity. But that hasn't been the case; insurance companies have denied most, if not all, business interruption claims.

New state guidelines went into effect Monday allowing restaurants to serve at 100 percent capacity — if they can keep tables six feet apart or separated by a barrier. For some, a bigger change is coming in three weeks.
