February 24rd - "Wilton continues to remain classified as a red zone community, though the 14-day average daily cases per 100,000 residents as of 2/20/21 declined versus the previous week. Of the surrounding suburban communities, New Canaan was the only community to experience an increase in their 14-day average. Weston and Weston moved back to orange.

If this week’s daily average trend continues, it will likely mean Wilton remains red next week.
