Missouri Health Director Says Chance Of Catching Coronavirus Reaches All-Time High

[Sherman A1]

Missouri’s public health director said Thursday that an individual’s chance of catching COVID-19 is the highest it’s been since the start of the pandemic.

“Even though, here on November 19, we have more resources and more things in the pipeline that give us great hope, at this very moment in time your risk of getting COVID-19 is at the highest it’s been because of community transmission and cold weather, and to some extent, COVID-19 fatigue,” Dr. Randall Williams said at Gov. Mike Parson’s weekly press briefing.

In an urgent and somber tone, Parson said the virus is spreading at a record pace.

“If you look back 30 days ago with statistics of COVID-19 in the state of Missouri, the first eight months of COVID-19, all the cases combined, there was more cases in October than there was in those first eight months,” Parson said. “The first 15 days of November is more than the numbers of the full month of October.”

1. The very rural county where my parents grew up now have a likelihood of COVID infection

identical to my much more semi-urban/suburban county in Colorado that is having explosive increases.

At least CO is trying to stop it. MO's governor is an idiot.

Sit on his pasty white ass some more?
