COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - As Georgia health officials work around the clock to slow the spread of the coronavirus, there was some encouraging news on the COVID-19 numbers announced at Columbus City Council Tuesday.
Coronavirus numbers continue to decline in Muscogee County.
”We’re still seeing our numbers trend down as far as positive cases and our seven-day rolling average has dropped below 50,” said Mayor Skip Henderson. “Now we’re still kind of high on that number of cases per 100,000 residents. We’re still over 400, but by and large, we’re looking better.”
According to Mayor Skip Henderson, even though the numbers are on the decline, the new numbers are still higher than Muscogee County’s highest point in spikes from the summer of 2020.
