Local Nov. 25th COVID-19 Report: Lab-confirmed positive +4, Probable +2, Recovered + 14, Active -8, Tested +380
Since our 11/24 update, 6 additional cases (4 lab-confirmed positive and 2 probable) have been reported and 14 individuals have moved to recovered (13 lab-confirmed positive and 1 probable).
As a reminder, there are multiple criteria that may place an individual in the probable category, such as an indeterminate test result or antibody test results. If a person is found to have antibodies, they may also already be considered “recovered.” If a person receives indeterminate test results, they may be retested and subsequently test positive or negative. A person in the probable category may remain in the probable category, may be moved to the confirmed case category, or may be removed from numbers if they are determined to not be a COVID-19 case, all based on epidemiology criteria.
