*“Hospitalizations” in the statewide and Santa Rosa County totals is a count of all laboratory confirmed cases in which an inpatient hospitalization occurred at any time during the course of illness. Most of these people are longer be hospitalized. The FDOH does not provide a count of patients currently hospitalized. The Escambia County number is current data compiled each day from the local hospitals.

**On cases by location, the city is based upon zip code and is not always received as part of the initial notification. There may be a delay in reporting locations, and locations will not total the daily case increase as a result.

***The Florida Department of Health does not have a clear standard or definition of “recovered” and does not report a number of recovered individuals. Escambia County is reporting an approximate recovery number defined as the total cases prior to last month, minus deaths. In other words, anyone that tested positive more than a month ago is presumed to have recovered by Escambia County.

    Esc Co you are wrong at assuming after 30 days you are presumed recovered. It has been 108 days(1-4-21)since coming down with covid and I am not recovered along with allot of us other long haulers. Esc Co whoever decided this needs to step down or revise their results. Go ask the specialist doctors treating long haulers how many they are treating to get a better account. Cardiac, plumonologists, primary doctors, etc.
