Georgia reports nearly 3,000 new COVID-19 cases Saturday, 48 new deaths

[TexasTowelie]

The Georgia Department of Public Health reported 281,548 cumulative COVID-19 cases Saturday, up by nearly 3,000 new cases in 24 hours.

Here are some key takeaways from the latest data:

Cases: 281,548 (+2,285 reported today). The number of new cases reported in a day may not match the difference in total cases over a 24-hour period. This occurs because previously reported cases may be removed as duplicate reports are corrected. An older confirmed case may also be reclassified as additional information is collected during an investigation.

Deaths: 5,977 (+48 deaths in 24 hours). It’s important to note that these numbers indicate when deaths are reported to the Georgia Department of Public Health. It does not reflect when these deaths occurred.

2. We went to a nature park today here in GA. We were the only ones with masks.

I take my child once a week at a time when the fewest people will be there.

We kept having to actively avoid and walk/run away from several large and unmasked family groups with up to 6 yelling and running kids.
