With partial results, because of what the department called “a technical disruption of the electronic laboratory system,” the state Department of Health announced 117 additional cases of COVID-19 and one additional death.
The state said the full results will be included when they are received and confirmed by the state.
With the partial totals, the state now has found 21,130 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 655 deaths related to the disease.
The 117 cases represent 3.29 percent of the 3,557 tests reported between Sunday and Monday. The average number of tests over the previous seven days was just under 6,500 and, at times, included over 8,000 tests per day.
The newly announced death was a male in his 60s from Doña Ana County who had underlying conditions. The state did not, as usual, disclose which underlying condition he had, only that one was present.
