All eyes are on West Virginia’s hospital capacity levels as positive cases continue to surge, especially in rural counties where options for care are limited. Dr. Carmen Burrell, a clinical director with WVU Urgent Care, told WCHS TV that there is usually a two week lag behind when we see case numbers starting to trend up and the time hospitals see new demand for increased care, because it can take that long to develop more severe symptoms. Charleston Area Medical Center spokesperson Dale Witte said the hospital systems facilities are currently taking care of rural hospital overflow. WVU Medicine said its hospitals are working closely with other hospitals throughout the state.
