In the last 24 hours, Phoebe received 94 test results throughout the health system.  That number includes 81 negative results and 8 positives, including five additional deaths of positive COVID-19 patients.

“In the last 24 hours, we admitted 25 non-COVID patients and seven COVID patients to our main hospital.  That shows we are entering a transition period toward more typical operations.  We also reported an additional five COVID-19 deaths today, and our thoughts and prayers go out to those families.  We stand ready to continue to meet the healthcare needs of our community created by the pandemic, but we are also caring for a growing number of patients who have not been directly affected by the virus.  We are currently involved in a detailed planning process to bring additional services back on line as we focus on providing medically necessary treatments and procedures that patients may have delayed over the last month.  Patient safety has been and will continue to be our top priority as we move forward,” said Scott Steiner, Phoebe Putney Health System Chief Executive Officer.
