    Riley County is reporting 37 new positive COVID-19 cases and 37 recoveries since Monday’s report.

    This brings the total number of active cases to 100 and recoveries to 2,066.

    The percent-positive rate for the week of Oct. 18 came in at 7.7 percent, or 83 positive results out of 1,077 total tests.

    This is up slightly from the previous week’s rate of five percent, or 55 positive results out of 1,105 total tests.

    Ascension Via Christi Hospital is caring for two COVID-19 positive patients at this time.
