Cases of COVID-19 in Minnesota resumed a steeper rise Wednesday with 761 cases shown and seven more deaths.
The number of other people recently hospitalized (297) has remained more or less solid since Tuesday; Another 135 people are under intensive care, on average in the last 10 days.
Daily hospitalizations have declined particularly since May, but have remained stubbornly constant since July in about three hundred patients.
The state public fitness is expected to report to journalists at 2 p.m.
The evidence was particularly high in Wednesday’s report, expanding faster than new cases, however, this is possibly due to the payment of accumulation.
Over the next week, Minnesota has noticed that its number of proven active instances was successful in a record.
Of the 77,085 instances shown of the disease in the pandemic to date, approximately 89 consistent with the percentage of known have recovered to the point where they no longer want to be isolated.
Of the other 1,830 people who died, approximately 73% lived in long-term care facilities or service homes; almost all had underlying fitness problems.
State fitness has been involved for weeks when Minnesotans reported on COVID-19 at the giant motorcycle rally August 7-16 in Sturgis, S.D.
The cases came shortly after the end of the rally.Minnesota officials reported 49 cases similar to the Sturgis rally on Monday, with two others in the hospital and one in intensive care.
Authorities are expected to update the case count Wednesday afternoon.Wednesday morning, a Washington Post article quoted Kris Ehresmann, the state’s director of infectious diseases, as saying that a Minnesotans who had to attend the rally had died of COVID-19, the first such death. in the country connected to Sturgis.
The demonstration attracted another 460,000 people from across the country.Most people have not taken serious precautions against COVID-19 infections.Some others wore masks and some said they had moved away from the crowd, but many others piled up in bars and rock shows.
The experts suggested that those who went to isolate for 14 days, check themselves if they are not feeling well and stay at home until they get the results of the control.
The state’s most recent COVID-19 report comes amid fears that academics returning to college this week could simply inspire outreach.
People in their twenties are the organization of age with the number of cases shown in the state: approximately 18,000 since the start of the pandemic, adding up to more than 10,000 among those aged 20 to 24.
The University of Minnesota is that early restriction of student movements will help.On Tuesday, the AU implemented a plan to slow down student movements when they return to the dual city campuses of Duluth and Rochester.
Will this help the virus? State officials expect it to.
On Monday, Minnesota Health Commissioner Jan Malcolm and other officials sounded alarm that the state is targeting serious disorders as the fall turns to winter, unless more Minnesota starts doing the right thing, adding masks and social estating, even when it meets friends and family.
The habit of Minnesotans in shops, restaurants and other public places is not so much the challenge now, however, “informal meetings have turned out to be a weak spot in our reaction to the pandemic,” the commissioner said this week.
“Cases now have to accumulate at a faster pace than our tests,” he added.”We are seeing epidemics in many contexts of our state … a very worrying network transmission point.”
Malcolm and Ehresmann admitted that many people, tired after six months of hearing about the desire to take precautions against the disease, would possibly lose interest.
“The downside is that other people have to stick to them so they can work,” Ehresmann said of public fitness protection recommendations.”We can offer many tipsArray … but that’s not what’s going to deal with this pandemic.”
The state fitness government has reiterated its considerations about the possibility of academics coming to overdue summer parties and other meetings that can drive the spread of COVID-19 and take it to campuses this fall.
Authorities also noticed an increase in Winona County on Monday characterized by the return of other college-age people.Winona State University and St.Mary’s University are located in Winona, as is a Minnesota State College Southeast campus.
While other people in their twenties are less likely to revel in the worst effects of the disease, experts are concerned that these young adults may pass it on to grandparents and other vulnerable populations.
At the regional level, dual cities and suburbs had been guilty of counting new reported cases, but Monday’s knowledge showed that new cases were increasing unless in Hennepin and Ramsey counties.
Cases in northern Minnesota resumed their ascent after jumping in July and then going back a bit.Beltrami County, Bemidji’s home, has noticed a stable in recent weeks.The county reported 327 cases and one death on Wednesday.
Meat packaging operations had been hot spots from primary epidemics in southwest, mid-west, and central Minnesota at the beginning of the pandemic.
The new cases had slowed considerably, although the challenge recently resurfaced in McLeod County (369 cases), where more than 20 workers at a Seneca Foods plant in Glencoe recently learned of an outbreak.
Sweat and Waseca counties are also experiencing recent increases in cases.Sweat showed 386 cases and two deaths on Wednesday.
State and national officials are involved in Minnesota’s recent sharp increase in new cases, adding nearly 2,000 over the weekend.
The daily number has been increasing during the two weeks following the previous fall in the month.The percentage of tests that yield positive results is also on the rise.
This caught the attention of the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, dr.Deborah Birx, who in Minnesota on Sunday.
Birx pointed out to reporters that there is a “worrying trend” here because Minnesota now has nine counties where the rate of positive cases detected in the tests now exceeds 10%, compared to only a few recently.
State-round, the percentage of COVID-19 tests has exceeded 5% since Thursday.
Sunday’s Birx assembly gave the impression of galvanizing Malcolm on Monday.
Birx, he said, issued “strong and stark warnings” about Minnesota’s existing position in the COVID-19 pandemic, noting that dual cities and their suburbs stood out through the federal government as one of the few urban spaces in the country where the stage is happening have increased in recent weeks.

HealthPartners announced Wednesday that it will recruit at least 1,500 other people in a clinical trial that will determine whether a vaccine developed through Oxford University is effective in preventing COVID-19.
Participants must be 18 years old, fit, and COVID-19 free. Researchers are primarily interested in other people who are at the highest risk of contracting COVID-19, such as physical care workers, first responders and workers in foodservice, retail supermarkets. points of sale and meat packaging.
They are also for others who have solid fitness disorders, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, which makes them more likely to expand the serious coVID-19 bureaucracy.They are also for other people of color to participate.
The trial is a randomized double-blind study. Approximately two-thirds of registrants will receive the vaccine and one-third will receive a placebo.
Researchers at the HealthPartners Institute will oversee the trial record in partnership with physicians through the organization’s fitness care formula.HealthPartners is Minnesota’s only fitness formula and one of nearly a hundred sites in the United States, Peru and Chile involved in the clinical trial, led through AstraZeneca.
“This study complements our other efforts to advance COVID-19 testing, remedy and care and is a vital component of our project to improve fitness and well-being,” said Andrea Walsh, CEO of HealthPartners.

As Minnesota prepares to send their children back to school in person, online, or a combination of both, parents are faced with a variety of unknowns. One challenge is the virus and the desire to replace their lives with young people.
Dr. Megan Culler Freeman, a pediatric infectious disease researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, said it’s general to recognize and be fair about this school year’s uncertainty for children.
“You can teach them the explanation of why we wash our hands, the explanation of why we wear masks is so we don’t get sick,” Freeman.go said.
Typically, during the school year, a child may have mild coughing or snort, which may not have been as severe as a prepandemic fear in life as is the case today.Gigi Chawla, a pediatric leader at Children’s Minnesota, said parents will want to re-evaluate this old taste of disease evaluation.
“Kids with a little sniffing, runny nose, sneezing and learning to cough in the palm of their arm and in fact we just can’t let this fall or winter, we want to take the position that if your child is in poor health anyway, it would mean he deserves to stay home until he heals,” Chawla told MPR News.
Some of the state’s public and personal schools have already started, at most Minnesota public schools will begin next week.
