COVID case counts are rising slightly in Pennsylvania while dropping slightly in New Jersey, but so far more cases aren’t leading to more hospitalizations.

Philadelphia is seeing a similar trend, but a broader look at the past three months shows the city’s overall case numbers — and those in both states — have largely plateaued.
