ATLANTA, GA – Even taking into account a post-weekend break in reports, the number of new COVID-19 cases and deaths in Georgia continues to decline: 1,055 new cases and 20 deaths were recorded in Monday afternoon’s state report.
The Georgia Department of Public Health reported that a total of 295337 cases showed cases of COVID-19 at 2:50 p. m. Monday according to the Department of Health website, these 1,055 new cases showed cases in the last 24 hours.

On Monday, Georgia administered nearly 2. 9 million COVID-19 tests, and approximately 10% of those tests were the least reliable used to find antibodies.
For maximum reliability control of the virus itself, 10. 3% of the controls yielded positive results; for less reliable antibody control, 8% produced positive results.
As more and more Georgians have been revised over the next month, the percentage of positive controls has increased slightly, from around 8% to more than 10%. However, in recent weeks, the percentage of positives has stabilized by just over 10% and is now slowly starting to decline. According to the World Health Organization, positive control effects do not exceed 5% for two weeks before reopening as usual. Georgia reopened largely in April and May, and since then Governor Brian Kemp has encouraged the use of face masks, but has categorically refused to demand them.
All Georgia statistics are available on the state’s COVID-19 website.
Worldwide, more than 29. 1 million others tested positive for COVID-19 and more than 925,000 people died, Johns Hopkins University reported Monday.
In the United States, more than 6. 5 million other people were inflamed and more than 194,000 others died from COVID-19 on Monday. The United States has only about 4% of the world’s population, yet more cases showed cases and deaths than any other country. .
