Kansas sees it’s highest seven-day jump in new COVID-19 cases

Kansas has reported the highest seven-day jump in new COVID-19 cases since the state confirmed its first positive case, but the death rate is decreasing.

The state Department of Health and Environment said Wednesday that Kansas saw another 1,536 confirmed cases since Monday, an increase of 4%. The two-day increase in reported coronavirus cases gave Kansas its biggest seven-day spike in new cases since the pandemic reached the state in early March.

Still, the 437 deaths reported Wednesday represent 1.09% of the reported cases, the lowest figure since April.
