Alaska COVID-19 and Influenza Weekly Case Update: June 19 – June 25, 2022

The Alaska Department of Health Weekly COVID-19 and Influenza Update has been updated with data from the week of June 19 - June 25, 2022 and can be viewed here. 
Key Findings: 
  • COVID-19 transmission remained widespread in most parts of Alaska during the week of June 19–June 25, 2022, with evidence for increasing cases in some areas but decreases elsewhere.
  • The number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 has increased over the past few weeks (see graph below illustrating hospital beds occupied by persons with COVID-19). Most parts of Alaska are now at the “high” COVID Community Level as defined by CDC. Learn more about CDC’s recommended prevention steps at each community level here.
  • Respiratory viruses can circulate year-round in Alaska. Actions such as staying home when sick, washing hands, and improving ventilation can protect you, your family, and your community from COVID-19, influenza, and other pathogens.
