Caveats apply to today's drop: There were very few cases reported for Memorial Day, so this may artificially reduce the average. Despite that, it looks like cases are dropping, but how much is hard to say until next week.

Fully vaccinated %s:

Allegheny County: 68.8%, 51% of those are boosted, 13.5% of boosted got 4th dose as of last week.

Hospitalizations

PA-wide hospital census: Using 16848 med/surg beds, 203 less than last week, 299 less than 2 weeks ago.

(Fairly stable hospitalization levels still; Covid is adding some pain but nothing like previous waves.)
