City of Lubbock confirmed 315 Additional COVID-19 Cases, 7 Deaths



As of 4:00 p.m. on Monday, December 14, 2020, the City of Lubbock confirmed 315 new cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19), 264 recoveries and 7 additional deaths. The total number of cases in Lubbock County is 36,933: 4,044 active, 32,424 listed as recovered and 465 total deaths.


Since the 4:00 PM cut off yesterday, 7 additional cases were reported or transferred into Lubbock. These have been adjusted into the cumulative totals.


As of 4:00 p.m. there are a combined 47 open hospital beds and 35 patients holding for beds at University Medical Center and Covenant Health System. Note that this reflects staffed beds open to receive patients and differs from the available bed count shown on the DSHS and the City of Lubbock dashboards. These dashboards count all available beds, including specialty beds, such as pediatrics, PICU, outpatient, psychiatric and others, as well as hospitalized patients in the 22 county Trauma Service Area.


Lubbock remains above the 15% threshold where the percentage of COVID-19 confirmed patients in regional hospitals as a percentage of available hospital beds. Today's COVID-19 hospitalization percentage was not available at time of release. Trauma Service Area B will remain under the additional restrictions outlined under Governor Abbott’s Executive Orders until we remain below 15% for seven consecutive days.
