Harrison Memorial Hospital, Non-COVID Capacity Issues

Harrison Memorial Hospital in Kentucky reported reaching full capacity, though officials clarified that the beds are filled with patients suffering from chronic conditions rather than COVID-19. CEO Sheila Curran noted that many patients delayed routine care for diabetes and heart disease during the pandemic, leading to more severe illnesses now. The hospital's COVID-19 wing remained largely empty during the report.
