May 10 Afternoon Update on COVID-19
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 36,112 COVID-19 cases and 781 deaths in Chester County.
Chester County recorded 141 new cases and zero deaths from the weekend, bringing the county’s totals to 36,112 cases and 781 deaths.
Meanwhile, the state has reported a two-day total of 2,399 new cases and 18 more deaths.
Chester County’s 36,112 cases represent 3.1 percent of Pennsylvania’s 1,174,687 total cases.
