CT Reports 9 Coronavirus Deaths, Positive Test Rate Still Low
Coronavirus hospitalizations remain low, but Gov. Ned Lamont warned that's no reason for Connecticut to be complacent.
CONNECTICUT — The state's positive coronavirus test rate remained just below 1 percent in Thursday's daily report, with 114 positive cases out of 11,453 tests administered. However, the state also had another nine deaths reported, which Gov. Ned Lamont called "disturbing" as he delivered a news conference Thursday. Total deaths since the pandemic began are at 4,389 and cases are at 47,750.
Net coronavirus hospitalizations dropped by one patient down to 66, which leaves the state with a significant amount of intensive care unit capacity and much more than some states like Arizona, which are at full capacity. Lamont cited Arizona as an example of how a state's hospital ICU beds can fill to capacity in less than a month.
