BISMARCK, N.D. (KVRR) – The North Dakota Department of Health reports 1,801 new COVID-19 cases and 11 new deaths since Wednesday.

There are 10,421 active cases in the state. 294 people are hospitalized.

Cass County reported the most new cases, with 404.

So far, 697 people in North Dakota have died.

Health officials say that the high number of daily tests and positives reflects 5,600 tests reported Wednesday, which were part of a backlog experienced by the third-party lab.

The abnormally high fluctuations in active cases, recovered and hospitalized are a result of the system catching up from the software issue experienced on Monday.
