The Utah Department of Health reported 396 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday –– the eighth day in a row that daily count has been 480 or less.
It also marked two full weeks in which fewer than 1,000 new cases have been reported each day. The highest tally in the past 14 days was 844 on Feb. 18; the second-highest tally was 664 on Feb. 23.
The health department on Thursday also reported six additional deaths, bringing Utah’s total to 4,442, since the pandemic began nearly two years ago. One of the deaths occurred before Feb. 3 and only recently was confirmed to have been caused by COVID-19. ICU occupancy rates were up slightly. Officials reported that 74.3% of all Utah ICU beds were occupied, compared with 70.8% the day before. ICUs in the state’s larger “referral” hospitals were at 76.9% capacity, higher than Wednesday’s 72.8%.
• An unvaccinated person who contracts the virus is 4.9 times more likely to die than a fully vaccinated person, and 15.1 times more likely than a person who has received a booster dose.
