The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on Thursday released data that showed 2,806 Florida hospital inpatients had COVID-19, up from 2,352 a week earlier.
The data also showed that 218 patients with COVID-19 were in intensive-care units, up slightly from 212 a week earlier. Numbers of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations have steadily increased in recent weeks, as variants of the coronavirus have developed and spread.
