H1N1 Hospitalizations and Deaths in Georgia

Keeping in line with guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Georgia will now be following the CDC policy to only report numbers of hospitalized cases and number of deaths rather than individual case counts.

CDC requires states to report on Wednesdays. Updates related to the numbers of hospitalized cases and number of deaths in Georgia will be added by COB Wednesday. Please note that these numbers will not be reported by county.
