The West Virginia Department of Health and

2020, there have been 204,914 total confirmatory
laboratory results received for COVID-19, with 4,146 total
cases and 96 deaths.
DHHR has confirmed the death of a 68-year

is with great sadness that we report the loss of this West Virginian and send

In
alignment with updated definitions from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, the dashboard includes probable cases which are individuals that have
symptoms and either serologic (antibody) or epidemiologic (e.g., a link to a
confirmed case) evidence of disease, but no confirmatory test.

As
case surveillance continues at the local health department level, it may reveal
that those tested in a certain county may not be a resident of that county, or
even the state as an individual in question may have crossed the state border
to be tested. Such is the case of Brooke, Jefferson,
McDowell, and Preston counties in this report.
