Minnesota’s death toll from the COVID-19 pandemic climbed past 4,400 on Sunday, with state health officials reporting more than 80 deaths on four of the past five days.
That includes the 85 additional COVID-19 deaths reported Sunday, as the daily average over the past week climbed to nearly 66, a record high.
The grim death toll continues as the number of new cases and hospital admissions each day continues to trend downward. The average test positivity rate over the past week also dropped, to below 9 percent the first time that’s happened since October.
