BOZEMAN — The Gallatin County City-County Health Department has confirmed 14 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday. This raises the cumulative total in the county to 1,207 cases.

According to a press release, there are 46 confirmed active cases and two current hospitalizations. There have been a total of 1,157 people recovered in Gallatin County. Four people have died from COVID-19 complications.

More data can be found on Gallatin City-County Health Department’s dashboard on the website here. This dashboard will be updated by 12 p.m. daily.

Information on statewide cases continues to be found here. And weekly COVID-19 surveillance reports can be found here. New reports are released each Friday. Please note that local data may differ from data about Gallatin County provided by the state as the Gallatin City-County Health Department may be alerted to additional cases before the state.

A recovered case means that a person who tested positive for COVID-19 has been released from isolation. It’s important to note that even when people are released from isolation, many continue to feel the effects of COVID-19 infection long after they are released from isolation. The Gallatin City-County Health Department calculates the recovered case number as the number of total cases minus any active cases, current hospitalizations, and deaths.
