Governor Wolf and PA Secretary of Health, Dr. Rachel Levine, have issued four new mitigation efforts due to the rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in the Commonwealth.  The new mitigation efforts include the following:

• Protecting Our Health Care System (Memorandum issued to acute care hospitals outlining expectations to care for Pennsylvanians who need care during the pandemic)
• New Traveler Testing Order (Order issued requiring negative COVID-19 test 72 hours prior to entering PA or mandatory 14-day quarantine when returning from other states)
• Strengthened Masking Order (New order strengthens masking order issued April 15th to include increased mandatory mask directives)
• Recommendations for Colleges and Universities (Departments of Health and Education issue recommendations for colleges and universities to implement a testing plan for when students return to campus following the holidays)

As we enter into the holiday and flu seasons, we encourage you to visit Wolf Administration COVID-19 Announcements to view complete details on how to help keep your family and community safe during this challenging time.
