Second Day Of No New COVID-19 Cases In Tuolumne, Regional Report

Sponsored by:

Sonora, CA – Tuolumne County Public Health reports no new Tuolumne County residents have been identified with coronavirus today. Public Health also states there continues to be a delay in data reporting with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) impacting all counties. The State Public Health Department says laboratories continue to report test results directly to providers and hospitals, and hospitalization and death rates are not impacted as they are reported directly to the state through different systems. As reported here Tuolumne County Health Officer Dr. Liza Ortiz spoke to the Tuolumne County Board of Supervisors about the issues with the state’s COVID-19 reporting system yesterday.

Tuolumne Public Health requests, “If you are a Tuolumne County resident and have received a positive COVID-19 test result, and you have not heard from Public Health, please self-isolate and call us right away at (209) 533-7440.” They also recommend visiting www.valleycovidhelp.com for more information. CDPH says they have a team from the Department of Technology assessing code issues, they are engaging local public health officers to ensure they have the necessary information and have instructed all laboratories in California to manually report all positive cases to the local public health departments.

One COVID-19 positive Tuolumne resident has been moved from isolation to recovered.

Known Tuolumne tests: 8,107, positive 144 (73 females and 71 males), hospitalized 3, active cases 10, total recovered 132.
