Hospital officials see decrease in COVID-19 patient hospitalizations
COVID-19 Hospitalization Update By Stefante Randall | January 22, 2021 at 7:40 PM CST - Updated January 22 at 9:46 PM
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WAFF) - Across the state of Alabama, there are more than 2,400 COVID patients in the hospital.
But that’s down from more than 3,000 just 10 days ago. WAFF 48 talked to local hospital leaders who said patient numbers are finally going down.
186 people are in the hospital with COVID in Madison County as of Friday. Two weeks ago, that number peaked at 270.
“I think the 270 peak was probably from the Christmas time, Thanksgiving around that time that break and we’ve seen those patients, but we haven’t seen the New Year’s Eve spike based on our numbers. We think we are on a decline,” said Huntsville Hospital Senior Vice President of Operations Tracy Doughty.
