Abstract:
The Montana COVID-19 Daily Case Summary web service hosts COVID-19 statistics for the state of Montana by county. The data was derived from local health officials at the county level who reported cases to the Montana Department of Health and Human Services. DPHHS tabulated case data and then gave the data to the Montana State Library to publish through this web service. The daily updates were managed by the Disaster and Emergency Service State Emergency Coordination Center.

Montana public health agencies and the Governor's Coronavirus task Force actively worked to limit the spread of novel coronavirus in Montana. The Montana State Library aided this effort by geo-enabling public health information and emergency response data to help decision-makers, State Emergency Coordination Center and the Governor's Coronavirus Task Force understand the spread of the disease.

This data and feature service is no longer maintained and the final update to this data was made on 05/05/2023.
