The Georgia Department of Public Health updated its statewide COVID-19 numbers on Monday morning.

The state is up to 772 cases, including 25 deaths. That’s up from 620 cases in Sunday night’s 7 p.m. update, an increase of 152 cases.

Troup County’s total shows four, but Public District 4 Director Dr. Olugbenga Obasanjo said in a roundtable Monday morning that there are also three suspected cases. Milliken also confirmed Monday that one of its associates at the Duncan Stewart plant tested positive for COVID-19. It’s unclear whether that associate is one of the four confirmed cases or one of the three suspected cases.

There have been 5,069 tests administered statewide, according to GDPH.
