Coronavirus Cases Reach Another County, Parades Canceled

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Cases of the new coronavirus crept into new counties in Pennsylvania as more schools and prisons took precautions and Philadelphia’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade was canceled. Bucks County late Tuesday night confirmed its first two cases of COVID-19. That’s the disease caused by the virus. That boosted the statewide total to at least 14 confirmed cases, amid growing reports of people getting sick while in Pennsylvania. The state’s health secretary isn’t recommending that large gatherings be canceled. But Philadelphia officials are urging people not to attend events of more than 5,000 attendees, including professional sporting events.
