Freeman CEO: It's beginning to look like we're near the end of this

Freeman Health CEO Paula Baker sounded a positive note at the beginning of the daily COVID-19 briefing this afternoon.

Freeman has had no new coronavirus cases and 10 overall to this point.

Of the 10, six have recovered and only one remains hospitalized.

Calls from people with at least some of the symptoms of COVID-19 have lessened from an average about 250 a day to only 117 yesterday.

"It's beginning to look like we're near the end of this."







Dr. Ryan Longnecker, a Freeman cardiologist (pictured), explained the effects COVID-19 has had on people with histories of heart problems, high blood pressure and diabetes.
