CASPER, Wyo. — The Wyoming Department of Health reported 23 additional COVID-19 deaths on Tuesday, March 1.
The 23 additional deaths brought the total number of Wyoming residents who have reportedly died after contracting COVID-19 to 1,741.
Governor Mark Gordon’s office announced Monday that the governor will lift his COVID-19 public health emergency declaration effective March 14. While the governor is lifting the emergency declaration in response to declining COVID-19 case numbers and hospitalizations, the governor noted that the virus will continue to impact the community.
“This virus will be with us for the foreseeable future and we should manage it appropriately,” Gordon said in Monday’s press release. “That means being personally responsible for one’s own health and respectful of your family and neighbors. Use the tools we now have available and stay home when you’re sick.”
