PENNSYLVANIA New coronavirus cases continued to plummet in Pennsylvania over the past week, as the state saw a 33 percent decrease over last week s already reduced numbers. The improvements come in the midst of the third consecutive week of a falling curve, as the fourth wave of the virus appears to abate.
A total of 9,522 cases were found in the seven-day period ending May 13, according to the Department of Health s Early Warning Monitoring Dashboard system. That s a significant reduction from the previous week s 14,400 cases.
Gov. Tom Wolf pointed to the increasing vaccination rate as a key driver of the improvements.
