VDH: COVID too low to measure

Report Timeframe: June 11-June 17, 2026. Current Vermont Department of Health recommendations on preventing COVID-19

by Timothy McQuiston, Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Department of Health has reported have COVID-19 hospitalizations remain at a negligible level total levels are nearly too low to measure. They are at a similar level to the levels seen last summer. There were no measles cases after one reported in Vermont in February in Washington County and the national outbreak is over. Meanwhile, RSV, Flu A and Flu B have mostly disappeared. There are still some Norovirus and Rotavirus showing up in samples.

See most recent test results below.

Neither the VDH nor the CDC are any longer reporting COVID fatalities or total cases in Vermont or in the US. 

The hospitalizations dataset contains day-level data reported from all Vermont hospitals each Tuesday. Reported numbers are subject to correction.

Laboratory-confirmed and diagnosed COVID-19 cases and COVID-19 outbreaks must still be reported to the Vermont Department of Health. 

There were 0 COVID outbreaks last week (0 the week before), with 0 in Long-Term Care Facilities and 0 in schools. Outbreaks increased slightly from mid-summer and have now subsided. School outbreaks in recent months have been rare. Overall, there have been only three outbreaks, all in LTC, since the March 2, 2026, report.
