To date, the county has reported 45,851 confirmed cases of the virus and 3,478 probable cases for a total of 49,329 cases. Tarrant County Public Health has also reported a total of 653 deaths.

The county began reporting both probable and confirmed cases in August at the request of the state health department. Probable cases, the county said, account for a variety of real-world situations and could highlight cases in the community that may otherwise go unreported.

Of the county's cases, 72% of those who have died were over the age of 65. Those aged 25 to 44 make up the largest percentage of people with COVID-19 at 37%.

The health department reported 265 COVID-19 patients are currently occupying hospital beds in the county as of Saturday -- about 5% of capacity. A month ago, on Aug. 26 COVID-19 patients occupied about 5% of Tarrant County hospital beds.
