(Note: Local health departments often learn about results from private labs and updates their numbers before the state of Montana does, Additionally, there may also be differences in reporting criteria, so the local numbers may differ from those that appear on the Montana COVID-19 tracking map. MTN News includes the data reported by individual Montana counties, which may include cases not counted by the state and different methods for determining recoveries.)
