A Washington Chick-Fil-A restaurant delivered 1000 meals to hospital staff serving as COVID-19 frontlines.
COVID-19 cases
Washington state has over 1,800 COVID-19 cases and about 18% mortality rate. The PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center is among the hospitals in the state that caters COVID-19 patients.
To maximize their facility, they are postponing elective surgeries for the time being. They are also restricting visitor access while the virus is still a public health threat.
“Out of an abundance of caution and learning from our partners in the Seattle area, we are taking these steps to protect our patients, caregivers and community, and to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 in our community,” the hospital said in a statement.
