During a press conference on Thursday, June 25th, Montgomery County officials announced that there are 48 new cases of Coronavirus in the county, with one coming from a long-term care facility. The new total of cases countywide since the start of the pandemic is now 8,153.

Zero new confirmed deaths due to Coronavirus were reported. The total number of confirmed death sits at 790. Probable deaths, those without a lab test to confirm, is at 90. Deaths involving a long-term care facility represent 84% of the confirmed deaths.
