**Some numbers may look different from the NCDHHS map - that's because some cases have been verified by local health departments, but haven't been updated yet on the NCDHHS site.**

Here's a look at the case numbers in the Triad: 

Guilford County - 138 cases, 10 deaths

Forsyth County - 117 cases, 4 deaths

Randolph County - 53 cases, 2 deaths

Davie County - 21 cases, 2 deaths

Rockingham County - 14 cases, 2 deaths

Davidson County - 84 cases, 2 deaths

Alamance County - County reports 39 cases, while NCDHHS reports 68 cases

Alamance County said in a Facebook post Monday that its positive case count is 39. 

"Twenty-one of these confirmed cases have been released from isolation by the Health Department. Of the remaining 18 active cases, three are receiving care in a hospital," the post said.

The county said that the NCDHHS map reported an "unusually high increase in COVID-19 cases" due to a large batch of LabCorp test results without addresses.

"Because LabCorp is headquartered in Alamance County when they have positive communicable disease test results with no address listed, the results default to Burlington because of the location of LabCorp and are then reported by default to the Alamance County Health Department," the post said.

The county said the health department had notified Labcorp.
