Montana COVID-19 Report (Wednesday, April 7)

178 COVID-19 cases were reported in Montana on Wednesday and according to data compiled by MTN News, the death toll since the onset of the pandemic is 1,489.

(Please note: The increase in the number of COVID-19 deaths reported today is due to ongoing reconciliation efforts of deaths, including nine deaths reported in Flathead County, Department of Health officials said. All of the deaths reported today occurred between October 2020 and March 2021.)

According to MTN News, the number of active cases in the state is currently 932 and there was a cumulative total of 105,789 cases of the virus in Montana. Of the total cases, 103,368 recovered.

There are currently 34 people hospitalized for the treatment of the virus, and the cumulative number of hospitalizations is 4,827.

The number of tests conducted in the state reached 1,220,629, an increase of 3,893 over the previous 24-hour reporting period.

The total dose of COVID-19 vaccine administered in Montana is 545,922 and the number of residents who are fully immunized is 220,114.

The numbers reported by MTN reflect the latest data from the Montana COVID website, along with supplementary data received from the Department of Health.

Note: As new COVID-19 cases continue in Montana, the difference between state data from DPHHS and local data from district health departments also continues.

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.
