Saratoga Hospital will be returning to a no visitor’s policy due to the increase in COVID-19 cases in the county.

The hospital said that in recent weeks, Saratoga County has had one of the highest positivity rates in the state.

On top of halting visitations, the hospital is also requiring anyone who enters its facilities to wear masks.

Employees are also expected to be vaccinated against COVID-19 or undergo weekly testing starting September 7. Exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis.
