DHHR Reports Increase of 93 Cases of COVID-19; Harrison County's Number at 186; State Deaths Remain at 116

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on August 01, 2020

Editor's Note: Starting today (Aug. 1) the DHHR will transition to just one COVID-19 statistic update per day. The daily reports are scheduled to be released at 10 a.m.
 
The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources is reporting as of this morning (Saturday, Aug. 1) at 10 a.m., the total number of COVID-19 cases has increased from 6,642 to 6,735; an increase of 93. 
 
Saturday's report is showing that the total number of tests given is 287,084 and the percentage of positive cases vs. tests given is at 2.35 percent. The daily percent positive is at 2.83 percent (daily tests/confirmatory test results).
 
According to the DHHR website, Harrison County's numbers are at 186 confirmed cases, 1 probable case, 41 active cases, one death and 145 recoveries. 
 
As case surveillance continues at the local health department level, it may reveal that those tested in a certain county may not be a resident of that county, or even the state as an individual in question may have crossed the state border to be tested.  
 
Also, the DHHR is reporting the number of statewide deaths remains at 116.
 
The number of recoveries from the virus is at 4,858 with active cases at 1,761.
