BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — The first COVID-19 numbers of the day (Wednesday, April 8, 2020) show a continued rise in Palm Beach County on all fronts. There are now at least 1,159 confirmed COVID-19 infection in Palm Beach County. The death has risen to 64. At least 203 people are — or have been — hospitalized with COVID-19 related conditions.
The deceased age range is now 41 to 96. The most recent death reported by the Florida Health Department is April — four days ago. That does not suggest a decline in deaths as much as it suggests a multi-day delay in information being released by Florida officials.
