[ARCHIVED] Wilkes County COVID-19 Count

As of 11:45 AM 4/20/2020

5 Confirmed Cases    
1 Confirmed Death
2 Confirmed Hospitalizations


Unfortunately, Wilkes Health is not able to provide a number of residents tested or negative test results. This is due to private practices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and some being tested outside the county. We understand that this frustrating, but only positive results and deaths are required by law to be reported to the health department.

Once Wilkes County has 15 cases, we will begin publishing demographic data about our cases.
