Wyoming Department of Health figures showed that the department received reports of 453 recoveries among those with confirmed or probable cases between Friday and Monday.
At the same time, the state reported 276 new laboratory-confirmed and 111 new probable cases, leaving Wyoming with 1,365 active cases for Monday
Four counties had more than 100 active cases, with one having more than 300.

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 112,199 the number of people diagnosed with coronavirus since the first case was detected in Wyoming in March 2020. Of those, 109,406 have recovered.
