Note: As COVID-19 cases escalate in Montana, the difference between state data from DPHHS and local data from health departments in the province is growing.
MTN has decided to use a combination of these sources to provide more accurate information on all media platforms. We think this is a more true version of the situation in Montana.
Local health departments can be alerted to cases occurring before Montana DPHHS. As the provinces share the information with the public, MTN feels that this should be reflected in our reporting. Using the local data, there will be times when MTN coronavirus data does not match the state report.
