The state reported<\/a> Tuesday six new confirmed cases of COVID-19. Of the new cases, three were residents from Anchorage, one was from Chugiak and the other was a resident in North Pole. There were no new hospitalizations or deaths reported.<\/p>\n

The case total for Alaska is 351 people, with 228 residents reported as recovered.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, there was no state press conference with Gov. Mike Dunleavy and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anne Zink. However, in their Monday evening press conference, Dunleavy said the nightly conferences will pick back up on Wednesday with initial discussions about the second phase for reopening the economy.<\/p>\n

On the Kenai Peninsula, the state has reported 19 confirmed cases of the new coronavirus, which includes an Anchor Point resident who died March 29 of complications with COVID-19 while out of state. <\/p>\n

There are positive cases across the peninsula, including two Homer residents, four Kenai residents, three residents in Seward, six residents in Soldotna and three residents in Sterling. The peninsula reported its last confirmed case April 17.<\/p>\n
