New information released from the Alabama Department of Public Health is shedding more light on the coronavirus pandemic in Alabama.

Tuesday, the ADPH released a large amount of demographic data related to COVID-19.

Before the only information provided was the county in which the diagnosed patient lived – the agency is still not releasing the exact location where the patient resides but is providing age, race and health conditions for those with the disease.

The latest ADPH info includes numbers on healthcare workers who are infected, the spread in Alabama nursing homes – and any underlying health conditions in connection with those who died from COVID-19.

Here’s the latest from ADPH as of Tuesday, April 7th:

2,007 laboratory cases – as of today there were 52 reported deaths – 39 of which have been confirmed.
