LINCOLN –Tonight's count for COVID-19 cases in the State is 81.  New cases were reported by the following local health departments:

• Douglas County Health Department 
• South Heartland District Health Department ,
• Two Rivers Public Health Department ,
• Sarpy/Cass Health Department ,
• Central District Health Department. 

DHHS will continue daily updates to Nebraska's case via its new Data Dashboard at http://dhhs.ne.gov/Pages/Coronavirus.

Correction: The state total last night was actually 69 as a case was erroneously removed.

People who are concerned they may have COVID-19 should self-isolate and call ahead to their primary care provider to be screened over the phone.

Certain people are at higher risk of getting very sick from COVID-19 including older adults and people who have serious chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes and lung disease, according to the CDC.
