SALT LAKE CITY A new record number of deaths caused by COVID-19 was reported in Utah on Thursday, as the health department listed 30 deaths and continued full capacity at hospitals throughout the state.
“It’s a tragic reminder that while there is a lot of hope on the horizon with the vaccine, we still have a long ways to go and we still need to protect those who are most vulnerable,” Utah Department of Health epidemiologist Dr. Angela Dunn said.
Those deaths, she said, occurred in the past four weeks and are a direct result of the surge in cases experienced throughout Utah in November.
