Centra Health CEO Dr. Andy Mueller said at a Thursday news conference the provider’s coronavirus numbers have been “incredibly dramatic and something that I didn’t think that we would honestly ever get to.” Though Centra’s health system has been able to bend to accommodate fluctuating levels of patients whose symptoms are severe enough to require care, he said “we’re starting to get close to the breaking point.”
