Latest Danbury Coronavirus Updates

DANBURY, CT — Mayor Mark Boughton has confirmed there are 714 cases of the new coronavirus in the City as of Saturday. That number includes the tally of positive cases tested at private and out-of-state facilities.

Connecticut reported another 45 coronavirus-associated deaths and 972 positive cases Saturday. There was an increase of 31 current hospitalizations, which was a recent low for the state.

To date there have been 11,510 confirmed coronavirus cases in Connecticut and 494 deaths. There are currently 1,593 people hospitalized for COVID-19. Nearly 40,000 patients have been tested in Connecticut.

Earlier this week Gov. Ned Lamont said that hospitalizations were going up on a linear basis instead of exponentially increasing, which could be a sign that Connecticut is starting to flatten the curve of cases.
