Jones Memorial Hospital in Wellsville has suspended visitation because of the spike in COVID-19 cases in Allegany County
Part of the spike is from a cluster of about 30 cases at Houghton Rehabilitation and Nursing home among residents and staff. Two residents have died.
Forty-five new cases have been reported in the county in the past week.
Jones Memorial CEO Eva Benedict says the goal is to minimize traffic at the hospital and decrease potential exposure to the virus.
