MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PA — While the vaccine rollout has been anything but smooth in Pennsylvania, coronavirus metrics in Montgomery County and many parts of the state continue to improve. The county has seen its best numbers since early November in all six of the metrics tracked by the state's Early Warning Monitoring Dashboard. That includes a percent positivity rate that's dropped all the way to 5.8 percent, and weekly confirmed cases that were cut nearly in half over a recent seven-day period, from 1,244 to 826. The incidence rate per 100,000 residents has also dropped below 100, from 149 to 99. On the municipal level, the bulk of the county's towns have seen fewer than 100 new cases in the past month.
