Health Officials Worry About Rising Cases, Decreasing COVID-19 Tests

(Harrisburg, PA) -- State health officials are worried as Pennsylvania's COVID-19 cases are rising, but tests are decreasing. Officials say they need to redouble efforts to increase the use of testing even as the state ramps up the vaccination process. They added that boosting testing can help determine the prevalence of the virus and assist counties of concern to move forward. This comes as the state is averaging 41-hundred-94 infections a day over the last week, which is a 38-percent increase from two-weeks ago.
