January 15 Afternoon Update on COVID-19: State Reports 6,047 New Cases, 215 Deaths

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 23,060 COVID-19 cases and 572 deaths in Chester County.

In the last 24 hours, 197 new cases and two deaths were recorded, bringing the county’s totals to 23,060 cases and 572 deaths.

Meanwhile, the state reported 6,047 new cases and 215 more deaths.

Chester County’s 23,060 cases represent 3.1 percent of Pennsylvania’s 754,611 total cases.
