December 23 Morning Update on COVID-19: Chester County Records 200 New Cases

By

Editor’s Note: The Pennsylvania Department of Health’s daily report for confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Chester County and Delaware County have not accurately reflected the actual number of cases in both counties. This is usually because of Delaware County cases that are incorrectly assigned to Chester County, which the Chester County Health Department corrects prior to reporting. The state’s data then reflects the corrections in its next data update. Consequently, the county’s numbers are the most accurate.

Based on the information found on Chester County’s COVID-19 Dashboard, there are a total of 17,885 COVID-19 cases and 463 deaths in Chester County.

Yesterday, the county recorded 200 new cases and one death, bringing the county’s totals to 17,885 cases and 463 deaths.

Meanwhile, the state reported 7,962 new cases and 231 deaths.

Chester County’s 17,885 cases represent 3.1 percent of Pennsylvania’s 571,551 total cases.
