The local nursing home experienced its second COVIDrelated death following a virus outbreak that began a couple of weeks ago, according to Permian Regional Medical Center CEO Donny Booth.
A Permian Residential Care Center resident with the virus died on Monday, Booth said.
There were also two more nursing home residents who tested positive, bringing the total to more than 40 of PRCC’s 60 residents.
But the good news is that some who contracted the virus were listed as recovered this week, according to Booth.
