Georgia reporting 47 deaths, more than 1,300 coronavirus cases. Here’s a breakdown by county.
The Georgia Department of Public Health at 7 p.m. Wednesday confirmed 1,387 cases of COVID-19 in the state, up by 140 from noon.
Forty-seven people have now died from the novel coronavirus in Georgia. Seven new deaths were reported since noon on Wednesday.
The Georgia Public Health Laboratory and private labs have conducted a total of 6,179 COVID-19 tests as of 7 p.m. March 25. The state has tested 1,482 people. Private labs have tested 4,697, state officials said.
The state health department is now reporting the number of people hospitalized from COVID-19. As of 7 p.m. Wednesday, that count was 438.
When asked to provide a breakdown of the residents tested for COVID-19 in each county, the state was unable to provide that data. The state is also not tracking the number of people who have recovered from COVID-19, state health officials said.
The state is reporting the counties for 153 of these cases as unknown. The county of a confirmed COVID-19 case is listed as “unknown” by the state if county data is not provided. The person may be homeless or medical professionals may not have entered the person’s county of residence into the state’s electronic database, health officials have previously said.
