Daily News | COVID cases are rising across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic as Philly leads charge to bring back masks
The rise in COVID-19 cases in Philadelphia, an 86% increase over the past two weeks,, mirrors what’s being seen in other Mid-Atlantic big cities.
In New York City, the seven-day daily average off COVID cases increased 39% over a two week period ending April 10, but hospitalizations declined by 17% over the same period. When cases increase, a rise in hospitalizations typically follows a week or two later, but health officials remain uncertain whether that pattern will hold as the BA.2 variant spreads.
New York City never had its own indoor mask requirement, but was covered by New York state’s mandate, which ended in February. As of last week,Washington, D.C., has seen a 76% increase in case rates from March 27 to April 10, the New York Times COVID data tracker reported, with the city now reporting 144 cases per 100,000 people. The city still describes that rate as presenting a low level of severity and reports it presents low impact to health-care systems.
In Baltimore, cases increased 21% over the past two weeks, but hospitalizations were down 14% in the same span.
