Covid cases push hospitals to capacity

Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville is dealing with their third surge of Covid cases Thursday, Dec 3, 2020. The hospital system has built multiple spaces to keep Covid patients away from the main hospital, however, more than 100 patients are still in standard hospital beds. The day after Thanksgiving was a record for the hospital intaking Covid patients. (Jenni Girtman for The Atlanta Journal Constitution)
