    FLOYD COUNTY, Ga. (CBS46) — The Georgia Department of Public Health has notified the Floyd County Emergency Care Center that a patient at the facility has tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus.

    The department says a 46 year-old woman came to the facility on Saturday, February 29 with flu-like symptoms. The patient was screened and tested positive for the Coronavirus but not COVID-19.

    The patient returned to the care center on Tuesday with worsening symptoms and she was subsequently admitted to the hospital and placed in isolation. She was then tested for COVID-19 and preliminary tests were deemed to be positive. Additional testing has been conducted but the results have yet to come back.

    Friday morning, the Georgia Department of Public Health said they were awaiting test results conducted after the woman tested positive for the coronavirus COVID-19. ..

      ATLANTA — There have been further developments overnight regarding COVID-19 in Georgia.

      DPH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have confirmed three additional cases of COVID-19 in Georgia.

      One individual is from Cobb County after recently returning from Italy and is isolated at home. The second individual is from Fulton County and is hospitalized. The source of this individual’s exposure is unclear at this time. Testing for these two cases was done solely by the CDC, prior to the Georgia Public Health Laboratory (GPHL) having the capacity to test for COVID-19.

      CDC testing has confirmed the presumptive positive test for COVID-19 in a resident of Floyd County. The original testing was done by GPHL on March 5. The individual is hospitalized.

      Additionally, DPH is awaiting confirmatory testing on a presumptive positive test for COVID-19 in a resident of Gwinnett County. The initial testing was completed by GPHL on March 6. The individual recently returned from Italy and was self-monitoring at home, and is now isolated at home...
