A total of 11 patients have been treated for the new coronavirus at Valley View Hospital since the beginning of the outbreak, according to new data released from Garfield County hospitals.<\/p>\n

Grand River Hospital has not admitted any patients with COVID-19 since the outbreak began.<\/p>\n

The data is a clearer look at the pandemic situation in Garfield County than what was previously available. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment manages the testing, and releases daily data about confirmed cases and deaths attributed to COVID-19 by county, but does not release county-specific numbers on hospitalizations.<\/p>\n

 \u201cValley View recognizes the importance of information during this COVID-19 pandemic. It will therefore start to share regular COVID-19 statistics with the media and our community,\u201d the hospital said in a statement.<\/p>\n
