In neighboring Indiana, the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) today announced that 718 additional Hoosiers have been diagnosed with COVID-19 through testing at ISDH, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and private laboratories. That brings to 14,395 the total number of Indiana residents known to have the novel coronavirus following corrections to the previous day’s total. 

A total of 785 Hoosiers have died of COVID-19. In addition, a total of 87 probable deaths have been reported. Probable deaths are those for which a physician listed COVID-19 as a contributing cause based on X-rays, scans and other clinical symptoms but for which no positive test is on record. Deaths are reported based on when data are received by ISDH and occurred over multiple days.

Information is constantly being entered into an electronic system and the number of cases and deaths can change as additional information is gathered. Information for a death previously reported has changed, therefore, today’s numbers have been adjusted.
