AUGUSTA — The Maine CDC has announced, Jan. 8, an additional 41 COVID-19 deaths in the state, bringing the state’s COVID-19 death toll to 426.

In the Jan. 8 briefing, Maine CDC Director Dr. Nirav Shah explained the sudden spike in numbers is due to additional epidemiological analysis by the CDC of death certificates over the past month.

Of the newly announced deaths, only six occurred over the last 48 hours, while the other 35 occurred over the month of December.

Maine CDC has a multi-layered process for confirming, and reporting, deaths related to COVID-19 to ensure accuracy and completion, Dr. Shah explained.

Maine CDC is either notified of a person passing related to COVID-19 by a hospital or other healthcare facility member, or by a funeral home worker or medical examiner. At times, the death is reported to Maine CDC immediately and other times it is reported to Maine CDC days later.

Workers from Maine CDC also scans over death certificates looking for signals on the paperwork that a person who passed may fit the criteria of being counted as a person who passed away with some association to COVID-19. Dr. Shah indicated that if this work was not conducted, individuals may slip through the cracks thus yielding inaccurate data for Maine’s COVID-19 outlook.

The nearly three dozen December deaths, Dr. Shah said, were a result of his team combing through death certificates and finding individuals that were associated with COVID-19 but previously unreported to Maine CDC.

“This is a morbid time,” said Dr. Shah.

Below is a table of all the COVID-19 cases in Maine resulting in deaths. Some information has not been provided by the Maine CDC.
