One thousand nine hundred eight patients are currently hospitalized. There have been 868 COVID-19-associated deaths. Today’s is a brief report format; a full report will be published weekly on Thursdays with additional information. The increase in deaths reported today is related to catch up of data entry and reporting and does not reflect a change in the trajectory of the outbreak.

Day-to-day changes reflect newly reported cases, deaths, and tests that occurred over the last several days to week. All data in this report are preliminary; data for previous dates will be updated as new reports are received and data errors are corrected. Hospitalization data were collected by the Connecticut Hospital Association. Deaths* reported to either the OCME or DPH are included in the daily COVID-19 update.

*For public health surveillance, COVID-19-associated deaths include persons who tested positive for COVID-19 around the time of death and persons who were not tested for COVID-19 whose death certificate lists COVID-19 disease as a cause of death or a significant condition contributing to death.
