HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — New confirmed coronavirus infections in Pennsylvania hit their highest one-day mark since May on Friday, with state health officials blaming the rising numbers on crowded bars and out-of-state travel to virus hot spots. Pennsylvania reported more than 1,000 new coronavirus infections for the first time since May 10. The state Health Department also reported another 32 coronavirus-related deaths, raising the statewide toll to 6,880. Meanwhile, West Chester University has become the first state university to announce that it will stick with remote learning in the fall.
