No deaths in Puerto Rico have been directly attributed to Hurricane Georges. Georges indirectly caused 8 deaths in Puerto Rico. A 28-year-old woman died from carbon monoxide poisoning after operating a gasoline-powered generator inside her home. Two others were hospitalized for the same issue. A Bayamón man was found dead from carbon monoxide poisoning after fumes entered his store. A mother and her three children were killed as a lit candle set their house on fire. The other two cases were due to accidents (head trauma and electrocution) while repairing storm damage. Total damages from the storm amounted to roughly $3 billion.
