There were 261 Utahns hospitalized with the coronavirus on Monday, the lowest since mid-July but higher than the 192 hospitalization reported on the same date a year ago.
There were 543 new COVID-19 cases diagnosed during the weekend, the Utah Department of Health reported Monday, with a weeklong average of 282 new cases per day — less than one-thirtieth of the peak of the virus’ omicron surge in January.
The state reported nine new deaths from COVID-19, including a Salt Lake County man younger than 24.
