Our @PHLPublicHealth Commissioner @DrTomFarley reported 154 new cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus in Philadelphia, bringing our total to 637.

Unfortunately, we also reported two deaths; one was a nursing home resident.
We also have the first case of a Dept. of Corrections employee and an inmate. Our prisons team members are taking every precaution to protect staff and inmates, and we're working with courts to reduce our jail population.

➡️Roundup of worker resources
The @PHLPublicHealth commissioner @DrTomFarley reported 23 new cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus, for a total of 67. Ten are healthcare workers.

The increase is due to both an increase in testing and the spread of the virus.

We expect that increase to continue.
Testing availability is improving. Most of the Philly area's large healthcare providers have set up testing sites. All sites are facing a shortage of kits, which is why they have criteria for who qualifies for a test.
