At least one new COVID 19 case has been confirmed via testing conducted last week in Escambia County for which results have been recently returned--- according to verbal information passed along to county staff earlier today. Additional information will be posted on the Florida COVID 19 site later this afternoon |
According to information provided verbally to county staff, some of the test results that have been conducted in the County over the last week utilizing the drive up locations are trickling in to officials.
While information is very, very preliminary at this point and not a lot of additional information is available (e.g. how many test results of the 800 plus conducted last week are back, what day's tests have been received back, etc.)--we are being told to expect the Department of Health to report at least one additional positive COVID 19 case in Escambia County as having been confirmed by testing that has thus far been received back from the lab.
This information will be added to the Florida Covid 19 Dashboard this afternoon/early evening according to staff.
Currently, personnel from DOH are in the process of doing contact tracing of this new individual who has tested positive.
More information will be coming later today and in the days to come as more and more of these results start to come in.
