Health systems are closely monitoring the growing number of COVID-19 cases in Pennsylvania. UPMC doctors responded Wednesday to questions about the increase in cases and hospitals. Doctors said the social spread was everywhere. The corona virus has moved from large population centers to more rural areas. The doctors also talked about what triggered the uprising. “We believe that a number of factors contributed to this increase, including opportunities for cover compliance, cold weather and very close meetings, especially small or large numbers indoors. UPMC said its hospital system was not overcrowded and had plenty of personal protective equipment. Doctors said they knew a lot about the virus and there are many more treatments. “Our mortality rates, our ICU enrollment and ventilation rates have dropped by 50% since the spring,” said Dr. Rachel Socrovitz. Despite the increase in cases among young people, doctors said, it is still an older population that is most at risk for more severe COVID-19 symptoms. Doctors urged people to follow the mitigation guidelines.
