The number of Indiana residents who have died from the coronavirus grew by 50 Saturday after the Indiana Department of Health released new statistics on the pandemic.

Nearly 9,700 Hoosiers now are confirmed to have died from COVID-19 or suspected of dying from it based on clinical diagnoses in patients for whom no positive test is on record, the department said.

Another 3,188 Hoosiers have been diagnosed with COVID-19, bringing to 608,519 the number of Indiana residents now known to have had the coronavirus.

In Monroe County, the total COVID-19 case number rose by 46 to 9,383, and the county death toll remained the same at 110, the department said.

Some 76,103 Monroe County residents have been tested, it said.
