Twelve more coronavirus-related deaths among Wyoming residents who had tested positive for COVID-19 have been confirmed, the Wyoming Department of Health said in a news release Wednesday.
Among the 12 are two Big Horn County residents: An older woman and an older man, who both died late last month. Both were residents of a long-term care facility.
COVID-related deaths also were recorded in Albany, Campbell, Converse, Fremont, Laramie, Natrona, Platte and Sweetwater counties.
Among Wyoming residents, there have now been 105 coronavirus-related deaths confirmed, 12,675 lab-confirmed cases and 2,369 probable cases reported since the pandemic began, the Department of Health said Wednesday.
Deaths among Wyoming residents are added to the state’s coronavirus-related death total based on official death certificate information. If death certificates do not describe COVID-19 as either causing or contributing to a person’s death, those deaths are not included in Wyoming’s count of coronavirus-related deaths.
