New reported COVID-19 cases and deaths are both up 2% since yesterday in Indiana, according to the state department of health.

Thirty-seven more Indiana residents have died from COVID-19, while another 646 Hoosiers have been diagnosed with the respiratory disease caused by the coronavirus, officials said Thursday.

The 37 new confirmed deaths occurred between April 29 and Thursday, but most of them occurred Wednesday and Thursday, according to according to data posted on the Indiana State Department of Health’s coronavirus dashboard.

Those deaths increased Indiana’s confirmed COVID-19 deaths to 1,907, the state agency said.

Another 161 people have died from probable infections of COVID-19 and those deaths increase Indiana’s confirmed or presumed COVID-19 deaths to 2,068 since the state’s first deaths was recorded on March 15.

Monroe County's total case number is up three today, bringing the county's total case number to 165. The state is reporting one additional COVID-19 death in the county, bringing the death toll to 12, and data provided shows 3,089 Monroe County residents have been tested. 

The additional 646 Hoosiers who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 brings Indiana’s total number of confirmed cases to 33,068, the state agency said.

This jump in cases statewide comes as IU Health announced yesterday it will be dismantling the exterior COVID-19 intake tents outside its hospitals in Bloomington, Bedford, and Paoli.

To date, 242,287 test results have been reported to the state health department and about 13.6% of those results have been positive for the coronavirus.

Indiana University officials announced yesterday its plan for the 2020-2021 school year, which will include a mix of online and in-person classes and ensure that students will be away from campus for the majority of the winter flu season.
