Please
note that delays may be experienced with the reporting of information from the
local health department to DHHR. 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.
Please note that
beginning today, the County Alert System map on the COVID-19 dashboard will not
be updated until Saturday, September 5, at 9:00 p.m. in conjunction with the
