202 COVID-19 cases were reported in Montana on Tuesday, and the death toll since the onset of the pandemic in the country reached 1,343, according to data compiled by MTN News.
According to MTN News, the number of active cases in the state is currently 2,577, and there was a cumulative total of 98,027 cases of the virus in Montana. Of the total cases, 94,107 recovered.
There are currently 96 people admitted to hospital for the treatment of the virus, and the cumulative number of hospitalizations is 4,461.
The number of tests conducted in the state reached 1,025,367, an increase of 1,383 during the previous 24-hour reporting period.
The number of Montanane who received at least one of the two vaccine shots is 184,483 and the number of Montanane who received both shots and are now fully vaccinated is 53,482.
The numbers reported by MTN reflect the latest data from the Montana COVID Web Site, together with supplementary information received from health care departments.
Note: As COVID-19 cases escalate in Montana, the difference between state data from DPHHS and local data from health departments in the country 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 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.
