3 Albany Deaths May Be Linked To Coronavirus
ANDY MILLER, GEORGIA HEALTH NEWS • MAR 18, 2020

The recent deaths of three southwest Georgia residents are being investigated as possibly having been caused by the coronavirus.

The Dougherty County coroner, Michael Fowler, said Tuesday that the deaths of the three people “are suspicious’’ and that tests are being run in those cases by the GBI medical examiner’s office.

The deaths, all in Albany, were of two people in their 40s and one person in the 70s, Fowler told GHN. One person died at home, one in a nursing home and one in a hospital, he said. He did not identify the facilities, and the local hospital, Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, did not give information about a recent death there.
