61 – COVID-19 related deaths
The Wyoming Department of Health is actively responding to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Disease symptoms, which may appear 2 to 14 days after exposure, include fever, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat and new loss of taste or smell. Older residents and people with certain health conditions have a higher risk of developing more serious illness.
Experts believe COVID-19 spreads from person-to-person mainly through close contact. People without symptoms may spread the virus.
Recommendations
- Stay home when sick and avoid other people unless you need medical attention.
- Wear cloth face coverings in public settings, especially when physical distancing of at least 6 feet isn’t practical.
- Follow public health orders.
- Older people and those with health conditions that mean they have a higher chance of getting seriously ill should avoid close-contact situations.
- Long-term care and healthcare facilities should follow guidelines for infection control and prevention.
