Pennsylvania

New update with state data up to midnight eastern: tally shows over 4000 tests.

https://t.co/Zc39AZVRge

WA and CA have conducted the most tests and have the most cases. Big gaps in our testing capacity knowledge: MA, TX, GA, PA.

@wcsek @alexismadrigal @PAHealthDept In Pennsylvania, yes. -@alexismadrigal

Some unexpected numbers came from Indiana today. Despite only having ~5000 confirmed cases, the state said today it has 924 COVID patients in the ICU and 500 on ventilators. That's not too far from California's ICU count and closing in on Pennsylvania and Louisiana's vent usage.

The death toll continues to be concentrated in New York and New Jersey, although Michigan, Illinois, and Pennsylvania continue to see substantial numbers of deaths each day. https://t.co/GbJ5RNM0mc

9 states reported over 50 deaths:

California: 98 Florida: 74 Illinois: 102 Indiana: 54 Massachusetts: 130 Michigan: 154 New Jersey: 204 New York: 299 Pennsylvania: 64

The reported death toll was very high today: 2,527, one of the three highest days of the outbreak.

Some of that is due to a large data reconciliation in Pennsylvania which resulted in the state reporting 554 deaths today. https://t.co/N8xFgm5WXM

The reported death toll today is 1,760, about the same as last Friday.

Only two states reported over 200 deaths today (NY and PA). https://t.co/0EjueTbsWz

Missouri Nevada New Jersey New York North Carolina Ohio Pennsylvania South Carolina Tennessee Wisconsin

This is the state of things now.

(Note that OR, KS, KY LA, PA, NH, and RI did not report any new cases today.) https://t.co/hgR7FfanYk

Thankfully, only 1 state in the Northeast (Pennsylvania) has a percent-positive rate over 3% over the past 7 days. https://t.co/cLOnc2691K

Pennsylvania’s outbreak has worsened over the last two weeks, though not to the degree seen in Sun Belt states. Since June 18, the daily number of new cases has roughly doubled in PA. In mid-June, 1 in 33 tests came back positive; this week, about 1 in 20 tests did. https://t.co/PRUe7JGIns

Note: Pennsylvania’s new case number looks very high because the state reported two days of testing data today. https://t.co/lKyTFh1SK5

38 states reported over 1k cases. CO, IN, KY, MD, MN, MO, MT, ND, NH, NJ, NV, PA, WV, and UT all set records for detected cases. (5 states did not report cases.) https://t.co/3Gi0ieFO3i

Cases and hospitalizations are increasing at an extremely fast rate in Pennsylvania and Ohio. https://t.co/UYIQzWT7RT

Zooming into the state level, more than 10 states broke case records today: AK, AR, AZ, DE, IN, MA, ME, NJ, PA, RI, and VT. Note: AZ had a higher count on Dec. 1, but it was a data backlog. https://t.co/ao6T6EQxiH

Pennsylvania is particularly worrisome. The northeastern state reported nearly 11.5k cases today, 3k more than its previous record. https://t.co/V5ZqptYzsf

The Northeast is beginning to see COVID-19 case increases reminiscent of that region’s Spring outbreaks. 838 new deaths were reported in the region -- the largest increase since early June. Nearly 40% of those deaths occurred in PA. https://t.co/qli0Vlm9fA

PA recorded 4,970 new LTC COVID-19 cases—a 6-month high. Based on the most available estimates of LTC residents in PA, 30% of people in the state’s LTC facilities have gotten COVID-19 and 99% of the reported deaths were among residents. https://t.co/0mo4CyHn1y

The trends in currently hospitalized data suggest that outbreak conditions in Midwest states are improving: 9 of 12 states saw falling hosp. this week compared to last. But nationally these improvements were offset by large hosp. increases in CA, GA, PA, and many Eastern states. https://t.co/mAt5VMQRnW

Seven states reported more than 10k cases today: CA, FL, IL, NY, PA, OH, and TX. https://t.co/L93HHx9vjH

Pennsylvania reported nearly 500 LTC deaths last week, an increase of 55% from the previous week, and about 10% of the total new LTC deaths from COVID-19 in the United States. https://t.co/5dBvUizJcE

California reported 585 deaths today. Before today, New York and Pennsylvania were the only states to have reported more than 500 deaths in a day.

CA, the most populous state, now also has more people hospitalized than NY did at the spring peak. https://t.co/u7FOXtlWCP

We continue our rolling updates to the metrics tracked in our original totalTestResults API field. We updated test metrics for Pennsylvania today, resulting in a ~28k daily increase and ~4.8 million cumulative increase in new tests. Follow our progress: https://t.co/nTLOkOG9wT
