COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake for Eligible Montanans by Age Group - 04-27-21
A few counties across Montana are seeing notable spikes in new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. Flathead, Park and Cascade county health officials say the virus is affecting the old and young alike.
Deputy Health Officer of Cascade County Bowen Trystianson says cases have been on the rise for about two weeks.
“On average, I think this week, we were getting around 10 to 20 reports a day, or so, of new cases, and we’re seeing a lot of that in the younger population.”
Trystianson says people in their 40s and 50s are also showing up in the hospital, a notable change from earlier in the pandemic. Hospitalizations statewide have been ticking upwards, jumping from 59 Monday to 68 Friday. Four new COVID-19 deaths were reported this week.
