Just when many people thought the worst of the coronavirus pandemic had passed, covid-19 cases are on the rise again in southwestern Pennsylvania. On Tuesday, Allegheny County reported its highest number of daily cases — 109 — including seven hospitalizations.
The numbers are a concern for health care professionals like Lindsey Junstrom, who works as a respiratory therapist at Allegheny Health Network’s Jefferson Hospital.
