Governor Holcomb provides update on COVID-19 response

Governor Eric Holcomb held a press conference with other state leaders Wednesday afternoon to provide an update on the COVID-19 response.

One of the subjects addressed was concern for long term care facilities.

The state has tested 600 long term care patients and workers and 170 tested positive for COVID-19.

The state now requires all nursing homes, group homes, jails and prisons to report all suspected coronavirus deaths immediately.
