There are 2,125 recorded coronavirus-related deaths in the commonwealth, up from 2,095 reported Tuesday. 1,073,463 PCR (polymerase chain reaction) tests have been conducted, with a 7.1 percent positive rate over the last week, down from the 7.3 percent reported Tuesday.

1,350 people across Virginia are hospitalized as of Wednesday, with confirmed or test-pending cases of COVID-19. 11,650 COVID patients have been released from hospitals in Virginia since the beginning of the pandemic, up 100 from Tuesday. That’s according to the Virginia Hospital and Healthcare Association, which gets a daily report from hospitals around the commonwealth.

These hospital numbers are different from those reported by VDH, which only gathers hospitalization status at the time each case is investigated by VDH, and is an underrepresentation of Virginia hospitalizations.
