ISDH says their dashboard has been updated to reflect the following changes based on information provided to them:
- One case has been removed from both Montgomery and Tippecanoe counties
- One Hamilton County case has been moved to Madison County
- One Marion County case has been moved to Howard County due to updated information regarding the county of residence.
