As part of our check and adjust process two weeks ago, we determined that some COVID+ patients who were hospitalized for very short periods of time were not captured in our cumulative data. As a result, our total number of patients admitted has increased by 17 over the entire period, beginning March 1.
38 of approximately 5,200 employees have tested positive for COVID-19.
Cumulative data
Total number of COVID-19+ patients admitted: 207
Total number of COVID-19+ patients recovered and discharged: 162
Total number of COVID-19+ deaths (at Salem Hospital): 26
