Allegheny County officials reported four more deaths related to the coronavirus Wednesday, bringing the countywide total to 10.

All of those people were over the age of 65.

Of that total, at least five patients were being treated in a hospital, including one person in their 60s, two in their 70s, one in their 80s and one in their 90s, according to information provided by the Allegheny County Health Department.

One person, who was in their 70s, was not hospitalized when they died from complications from the coronavirus.

In recent weeks, 113 county residents have been treated in hospitals for covid-19. Allegheny County officials have not released details about how many of those people have been discharged or who have since recovered.

Officials reported 31 additional covid-19 cases Wednesday, bringing the countywide total to 720 since March 14, when the first case was reported in the county.

That’s compared to 47 new cases reported Tuesday, 37 new cases Monday, 53 new cases Sunday and 76 new cases Saturday.

At least one case of the coronavirus has been reported in every Pennsylvania county, with the most cases reported surrounding the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia metro areas, according to figures provided by the state Department of Health.

More than 98,000 people have been tested statewide to date. Of that total, 16,239 have tested positive for covid-19, and 310 people — including 10 from Allegheny County — have died.

The 25- to 49-year-old age group accounts for the biggest share, about 41%, of cases statewide, but covid-19 patients 65 and older make up the biggest share of hospitalizations, about 51%, state data show.

Allegheny County cases match those trends.

Demographic information related to Allegheny County covid-19 cases that has been released includes a general age and gender breakdown, as well as a map showing where people with covid-19 live.

Data reported to the county health department includes a person’s name, test result, date of birth and address, but not all reported tests include complete information, county officials said in a statement Tuesday.

Some are missing addresses, and less than half of the reported tests contain data on race of the individual who was tested, the statement said.

Officials said they are working to develop a plan to analyze racial demographics and to address any inequalities in testing.

The cases are split about evenly between genders: 369 females and 351 males.

Of the county’s 720 total cases, the City of Pittsburgh continues to report the most cases, with 227, according to a heat map showing cases throughout the county last updated by the county April 6.

That map does not include a breakdown of cases by city neighborhood or ZIP code.

Among other municipalities, the map showed that Richland has 22 cases, McCandless has 20, Penn Hills has 18 and Shaler has 14.
