State revises some death counts

GREAT BEND TRIBUNE State revises some death counts The total number of deaths related to COVID-19 in Kansas was adjusted downward last week, from 4,851 on Wednesday, March 10, to 4,824 on Friday, March 12, or 27 fewer, according to numbers released by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. On Monday, Barton County’s COVID-19 death toll was adjusted from 48 to 46 and Pawnee County’s was adjusted from 14 to 13. The KDHE explained that the decrease in deaths is attributed to the review of death certificates. “Deaths initially reported to KDHE/Local Health Departments as COVID-19 related were identified during the review process as not having COVID-19 as the main cause or contributing cause of death. This is a normal process that occurs.”
