Is this one of the Charleston cases then?
"Another case of coronavirus was confirmed in South Carolina Wednesday morning when a patient tested positive for COVID-19 at a Lowcountry health facility. The Department of Health and Environmental Control confirmed a patient at Summerville Medical Center tested positive, Dorchester County officials said in a news release. The patient is a Charleston County resident who was taken to Summerville Medical Center in a personal vehicle, according to the release."

Just a note that there are cases that DHEC seems not to have confirmed yet (e.g. this one in Sumter County). At first I started including this number in addition to the DHEC numbers in the statistics table. But I realized it will get too unmanageable and confusing, so for the stats table itself, I proposed just keeping to DHEC's numbers. Though if there are reports outside of DHEC, feel free to link to them elsewhere in the article! -- FranksValli ( talk) 23:53, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Can we get a recovered case column for South Carolina they have one on the Illinois page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doublel70 ( talk • contribs) 12:51, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
I am planning on adding a new section on the Public Health response with subheadings on Hospital Capacity, Testing, Contact Tracing, and Modeling and Projections. I may also move the statistics section to the bottom of the page to be in line with other pages. Thoughts or concerns? Prim8acs ( talk) 01:41, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
