Daily coronavirus updates: Connecticut reports zero coronavirus deaths for third day in past two weeks

Connecticut again reported zero new coronavirus-related deaths on Tuesday, which marks the third day in two weeks that the state’s death count has not moved.

The state has now seen a total of 4,406 coronavirus-related deaths since the pandemic hit the state in March. But while the deaths did not tick up Tuesday, the state did see an increase in the number of hospitalized patients — that number increased by 8, for a total of 62.

Nearly 141,500 people in the U.S. have died from COVID-19, Johns Hopkins University’s Coronavirus Resource Center reported Tuesday evening.
