Today’s Covid-19 Update for Monday, September 7 2020

09/07/2020

Roseau County has 93 Positive Cases; with 2 new cases reported today; 19 ACTIVE Cases; 74 having recovered (out of isolation).

The World Health Organization says that a 14-day positive test rate of below 5 percent is the key to keeping businesses open.

Monday’s update includes 638 new positive tests for the coronavirus, none of which have been removed for an official count of 638 new cases. Those positive cases are the result of 9,382 people tested, creating a 24-hour reporting period test positivity rate of 6.80%.

The positive test rate is lower from the perspective when the number of individuals producing positive tests (638) divided by total completed tests (15,147). In that case, the positivity rate is 4.21%.

The “tests completed” number is always higher than the “people tested” metric because some people get tested multiple times and those who test positive are only counted once, so it produces a less accurate positivity rate.
