Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) announced new restrictions on restaurants, bars, and other gatherings following a rise in COVID-19 cases.
“When we hit our peak on April 9, we had nearly 2,000 new cases that day with other days’ cases hovering around 1,000. Medical experts looking at the trajectory we are on now are projecting that this new surge could soon eclipse the April peak. With our rapid case increases we need to act again now,” Wolf, a Democrat, said in a news conference on Wednesday.
