E.coli bacteria and harmful algal bloom toxins have been detected in various bodies of water around Gallatin County, with three Caution Advisories being issued so far. Some of the most popular recreational sites in the county are being affected and it's important to pay attention to any posted signage.
Again with the highest number of active cases and the highest number of NEW positive COVID-19 cases, Gallatin County continues to be the 'hotspot' of Montana.
It's becoming a regular occurrence. Gallatin County tops the State of Montana in new cases of COVID-19, and also has the highest number of current cases of all Montana counties with 835.
It hasn't been a great week for Montana's new positive COVID-19 case count. With Gallatin County's vaccination rate sitting idly at 61% (which is better than many counties in the state), where do we go from here?
