Preliminary COVID-19 Test Results: Seven New Cases Reported
Today, the Department of Public Health and Social Services (DPHSS) reported a preliminary case count of seven new cases of COVID-19 from 131 specimens analyzed on April 2, 2022. To date, there have been a total of 47,337 officially reported cases, 349 deaths, 839 cases in active isolation, and 46,149 not in active isolation.
Eight Hospitalized for COVID-19
SPECIAL NOTE: Based on today's data, if we were to compare two (2) hypothetical populations of 100,000 people each, vaccinated versus unvaccinated, there would be 4 vaccinated people hospitalized for COVID-19 compared to 36 unvaccinated people hospitalized for COVID-19. The risk of being hospitalized for COVID-19 is about 9 times higher for the unvaccinated as compared to the vaccinated. *Estimated population is based on DPHSS Immunization Program analysis of 2020 Census data. Updates are expected pending further Census 2020 data breakdown.
