COVID-19 cases are few, but have doubled in Erie County in the last two weeks
The seven-day total of newly identified COVID-19 cases in Erie County has doubled in the last two weeks, albeit at a low level not seen since April 2020.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health reported 26 new cases in the county from 16 to 22 July. This is an increase from 19 cases last week and 13 cases two weeks ago.
The increase in counties occurs as hospitals fill up with patients in certain areas where delta variants dominate the country, cases increase, and COVID-19 vaccinations are low.

Hospitals in Erie County have not seen a significant increase in COVID-19 patients. The average number of COVID-specific hospitalizations per day in the county increased from 3 to 3.4 this week, but has been relatively stable since it declined in the spring.
In addition, within the last five weeks, only two of the 477 deaths in the county due to COVID-19 complications have been reported.
“There is no increase in hospitalizations. So far, it’s been very good,” said Jim Donnelly of RN, UPMC Hamot’s Chief Nursing and Quality Officer. “Most patients are unvaccinated when looking at the number of hospitalizations reported in medical facilities across the country. We recommend that unvaccinated people be vaccinated.”
