Montana COVID-19 Report (Wednesday, April 7)

178 recently confirmed COVID-19 cases were reported on Wednesday, and the death toll from the beginning of the pandemic is 1,489, according to data compiled by MTN News.

(Note: The increase in COVID-19-related deaths reported today is due to continued efforts to reconcile death records, including nine reported deaths in Flathead County, state health department officials said. All deaths reported today occurred between October 2020 and March 2021.)

The number of active cases in the state is currently 932, according to MTN News, and there was a cumulative total of 105,789 virus cases 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 performed in the state reached 1,220,629, an increase of 3,893 in the previous 24-hour reporting period.

The total number of doses of COVID-19 vaccine given 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 additional data received from county health departments.

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

MTN has decided to use a combination of these sources to provide more accurate information on all media platforms. We believe this is a more accurate presentation of the situation in Montana.

Local county health departments can be alerted to cases before DPHHS in Montana. As those counties share this information with the public, MTN believes that it should be reflected in our reporting. The use of these local data means that there will be times when the MTN coronavirus data does not align with the state report.
