    Lowville, NY- Lewis County unveiled a new mapping tool during a news
    conference this afternoon, that tracks COVID-19 infections by town.

    The data is expected to be updated daily, according to officials.

    After months of denied requests for a data breakdown by township, this is the
    first time community members can see the number of active and overall COVID-
    19 cases in their town.

    During today's press conference Lewis County Manager Ryan Piche stressed
    that the map can be misleading. Even if a town is showing a low active case
    count, it is still important to wear a mask, maintain social distance, and follow all

    The initial data released today includes the first 220 confirmed COVID-19 cases
    in the county as follows:
