WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. (AP) — Navajo Nation health officials have reported 36 more cases of COVID-19 and one additional death.
That brings the total number of people infected to 9,139 and the known death toll to 462 as of Monday night. Tribal health officials say 82,148 people have been tested for the coronavirus and 6,743 have recovered. The vast majority of people who are diagnosed with COVID-19 recover.
For some people it causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. But for some people who contract the virus, especially those who are older or have underlying health conditions, it can cause more severe illness and death.
