The most recent statistics on the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak for Missouri from the Department of Health and Senior Services:
Cases in Missouri: 6,625
Total Deaths: 262
Patients tested in Missouri (by all labs): approximately 67,017
Important Update: Due to a technical difficulty identified and corrected yesterday, results from one commercial lab performing tests for Missourians were not submitted from April 16-22. So many of the cases identified as “new” today were actually tested and diagnosed during those dates, so today’s increase in totals is not due to a spike in new cases being identified within the past 24 to 48 hours.
Additionally, there was a delay in the reporting of a number of deaths from a jurisdiction into the Missouri tracking system. So, in addition to the past 24 hours, the increase today covers some deaths that occurred from April 12-22.
9.89% of COVID-19 tests in Missouri have a positive result. 3.95% of all confirmed COVID-19 cases in Missouri have resulted in a fatality.

Saline County – 139 confirmed cases, 607.12 per 100,000 population
