The state health department last week started to include antigen test results to the state’s data collection and reporting system. A positive antigen test result is considered a “probable” case, while a positive molecular test result is consider a “confirmed” case.

Antigen testing is a rapid test that can be completed in less than an hour. Molecular tests usually take days before results are made available.

Logan County remains at one death, which was reported on April 29.
