The Livingston County Health Department says nearly 100 new COVID-19 patients were identified on Monday (12/7). Three of those individuals are incarcerated at Pontiac Correctional Center. The death toll also rose on Monday with the report of three deaths due to complications from the disease.

That brings the county’s grand total to 2,513. 186 cases remain active and 35 people have died from the disease.

LCHD’s website (www.lchd.us) has more information regarding the pandemic. That website is also the place to make reservations for COVID-19 testing at OSF St. James-John W. Albrecht Medical Center.
