Pennsylvania sees 3rd straight day of under 400 infections
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — State data shows Pennsylvania has recorded a third straight day of under 400 new positive coronavirus tests, the longest such stretch since new cases began regularly exceeding that level in late March. Still, the number of people dying from it daily remains in the dozens. Officials on Tuesday reported 33 additional deaths and 362 new positive cases. That brings Pennsylvania’s totals to nearly 80,000 cases and 6,276 deaths since early March. Of those, 75% have recovered. The number of infections is thought to be far higher than the state’s confirmed case count because many people haven’t been tested and studies suggest people can be infected without feeling sick.
Locally in Beaver County we do not any new cases and remain at 613. 594 Cases Confirmed and 19 probables. 4918 people have tested negative and the remains at 77 deaths.
In the 3 Nursing homes in the county that are reporting positive cases there are 392 positive cases. 43 employees have tested positive, and the death toll remains at 82.
