A patient from Decatur County who died at Columbus Regional Hospital Wednesday is the hospital’s first death from COVID-19.
The hospital told the Republic’s newsgathering partner WCSI that a person who lives outside Bartholomew County died at the hospital on Wednesday.
Bartholomew County Coroner Clayton Nolting is awaiting test results of another possible COVID-19 death involving a Bartholomew County resident. Test results are expected in seven to 10 days on that case.
