December 9 Morning Update on COVID-19: Chester County Records 278 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 14,253 COVID-19 cases and 419 deaths in Chester County.

Yesterday, 278 new cases and one death were recorded, bringing the county’s totals to 14,253 cases and 419 deaths.

Meanwhile, the state reported 10,170 new cases.

Chester County’s 14,253 cases represent 3.3 percent of Pennsylvania’s 436,614 total cases.
