Coronavirus spreads in Pennsylvania, as cancellations grow
Pennsylvania is confirming more cases of the new coronavirus, as more schools canceled classes, travel or events. The state Department of Health reported another positive test for COVID-19 on Tuesday in a resident of Montgomery County. Philadelphia also reported its first test. That brings the statewide total to at least 11, while Germantown Academy says a student has been sickened after their parent tested positive. All people who tested positive live in eastern Pennsylvania, and nearly all are believed to have contracted it by traveling outside the state. Meanwhile, the 2020 Northeast Regional Science Olympiad at Penn State Wilkes-Barre was canceled.
