1,887 Confirmed Cases
41 Confirmed Deaths
4 currently hospitalized
In the last 14 days Wilkes County has had 469 new cases reported locally.
Unfortunately, Wilkes Health is not able to provide a number of residents tested or negative test results. This is due to private practices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and some being tested outside the county. We understand that this frustrating, but only positive results and deaths are required by law to be reported to the health department.

Please see below for demographic related information for 1,846 COVID-19 laboratory confirmed cases.
Information labeled unknown means Wilkes Health does not have access to that information.
