evidence: The Bronx -- the 10th worst U.S. county for COVID deaths and the 20th worst for cases since the start of the pandemic, according to Johns Hopkins data -- also has the lowest booster dose rate (29%) of all five boroughs. Yet it has the lowest rolling infection rate in the city -- and the entire state, apparently -- and it's not even close. [...] Whatever the reason, the Bronx now stands alone -- with the three other counties statewide considered low risk by the CDC earlier in the week now getting upgraded to either high (Orange County) or medium risk (Chautauqua, Allegany). Based on the latest trends in New York City, though, that distinction may not last long. [...] Long Island also has the third-highest reinfection rate of the state's 10 regions (6.6 reinfections per 100,000 residents over the last week), well above the average of 5.3 and the rolling reinfection rate in New York City (4.1), New York data shows.
