12 COVID-19 cases in Pennsylvania traced to New Jersey shore
DOYLESTOWN, Pa. (AP) — Health officials in eastern Pennsylvania have traced 12 new coronavirus cases to a person who attended recent beach house gatherings at the New Jersey shore. The Bucks County health department announced on Saturday the cases are linked to a New Jersey resident who was present at multiple gatherings during the past two weeks. The department did not release the location in New Jersey. Health Director Dr. David Damsker says there are likely “to be additional infections among family members of the new cases.” He did not provided additional details. Damsker says it’s important to wear face coverings when attending small gatherings involving people who are not members of the same household.
