In reply to the discussion: Europe's third wave: Even the country with the highest vaccination rate cannot hold back the tide [View all]Cal Carpenter
(4,959 posts)13. My state's (Michigan) 7-day average has almost DOUBLED in the last 3 weeks
while the rest of the country is still decreasing a bit on average.
I don't know if we're a harbinger for the rest of the country or what, but the fact that our governor LOOSENED restrictions on businesses 2 weeks ago was not a fucking good idea. Because any impact from that won't have shown up yet, which means numbers will keep going up. Again. AND we have plenty of cases of the UK variant here and even some of the S African variant as of last week.
SO FRUSTRATED.
