Remember that Rye guy and Westchester County boss George Latimer moved his COVID-19 briefings from daily to now twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays. So no briefing on the other weekdays, but we do expect to continue to post daily COVID-19 counts for Rye and Westchester County for the foreseeable future.

For Thursday, January 21, 2021, Westchester reported the following City of Rye numbers via the County COVID dashboard.

907 total COVID-19 cases since inception;
154 active COVID-19 cases (this assumes the remaining 753 have run the average two week contagion cycle and are no longer active);
