The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources (DHHR) confirms three new cases of COVID-19 and three additional deaths in the state. The state also reports a Cumulative Percent Positive Test Result of 2.13%.

The WV DHHR has confirmed the deaths of a 70-year old female from Jackson County, an 89-year old male from Kanawha County, and a 56-year old female from Nicholas County.
These are considered official numbers reported to the state, which the WV DHRR will report to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Delays may be experienced with the reporting of cases and deaths from the local health department to the state health department.
