On Saturday, the Indiana State Department of Health reported the 48th, 49th, 50th and 51st COVID-19 deaths in Wabash County.
Meanwhile, during a televised press conference Wednesday, Jan. 20, state health commissioner Kristina Box said there had been at least four cases of United Kingdom B.1.1.7 strain identified in Indiana.
In total, 122 cases have been identified in at least 20 states.
âThis strain is a mutation of the virus and it is more easily transmitted than the strain we were dealing with up until now,â said Box. âThere are also are reports of other mutations including one that has been detected in South Africa. This new strain behaves much like the UK variant and also is more transmissible. It has not been detected in North America, but we continue to monitor closely for this mutation.â
