KDHE names 43 of 346 active coronavirus outbreaks in Kansas. Here are the locations Jason Tidd, The Wichita Eagle
Jan. 20 Kansas public health officials on Wednesday reported 346 active coronavirus clusters in the state, but named only 43 locations.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment s weekly cluster update on Wednesday showed five more active outbreaks of COVID-19 than last week. It was the first increase in statewide active clusters since Thanksgiving.
The 346 active clusters account for 14,240 cases, 565 hospitalizations and 622 deaths.
Clusters are generally defined as two or more cases of COVID-19 with a common place and time, but the state health agency only names locations with five or more cases within the current two-week period. Home-based daycares and private events are excluded due to privacy concerns.
