DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa health officials said Sunday that a “significant number” of coronavirus tests were not reported over the weekend due to a backlog in the department’s electronic reporting system.

The Iowa Department of Public Health said its COVID-19 website will continue to update, and noted in a news release that reported daily case counts from last week will be adjusted as it processes the backlog.

As of 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 19, The Iowa Department of Public Health said that 733 additional cases of COVID-19 were reported since Saturday morning, making the total in the state since the pandemic began 38,637. 27,875 people are considered recovered from the disease, an increase of 69.
