INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana health officials added 16 more coronavirus-related deaths as state reports show more deaths of people with COVID-19 infections during August than the month before. Indiana’s newly recorded deaths raise the state’s pandemic death toll to 3,312, including confirmed and presumed coronavirus cases, since Indiana’s first fatality was reported in mid-March. The state had at least 309 coronavirus deaths during August, up from the 287 such deaths reported during July. COVID-19 fatalities in Indiana remain far below the level seen earlier in the outbreak, when at least 1,041 people died during April.
