Recovery at Long Term Care facilities is progressing. On Friday, the state removed Premier Estates of Toledo from its list of outbreaks.

Staff at the facility in Tama County tested in an effort to mitigate the spread. Long Term Care centers must have no new cases for 28 days, or two cycles of the virus, before the state considers their outbreak 'over'.
