ATHENS, Ala. (WAFF) - Athens-Limestone Hospital reached a peak number of COVID-19 patients following the holidays, but Dr. Matthew Hanserd says that does not mean they are in the clear.
âWhat you have to remember is when that peak is two and a half times what we were seeing during the summer, is that weâre still seeing a tremendous amount of patients everyday,â Hanserd said.
