Wyoming’s active coronavirus case total decreased by 382 over the weekend.
Wyoming Department of Health figures showed that the department received reports of 1,002 recoveries among those with confirmed or probable cases between Friday and Monday.
At the same time, the state reported 413 new laboratory-confirmed and 207 new probable cases, leaving Wyoming with 2,150 active cases for Monday.
Seven counties had more than 100 active cases, with two having more than 400. Laramie had 426; Natrona 416; Fremont 155; Uinta 146; Albany 133; Sweetwater 130; Campbell 127; Sheridan 91; Park 62; Lincoln 51; Sublette 50; Goshen 45; Teton 42; Carbon 41; Niobrara 36; Washakie 36; Platte 32; Johnson 31; Converse 28; Crook 26; Big Horn 24; Weston had 18, while Hot Springs reported four active cases.
Active cases are determined by adding the total confirmed and probable coronavirus cases diagnosed since the illness first surfaced in Wyoming on March 12, 2020, subtracting the number of recoveries during the same period among patients with both confirmed and probable cases and taking into account the number of deaths attributed to the illness.
The new confirmed and probable cases brought to 108,103 the number of people diagnosed with coronavirus since the first case was detected in Wyoming in March 2020. Of those, 104,655 have recovered.
