In good Covid news [View all]

Daily deaths in the US reached their lowest levels since March of 2020, the start of the pandemic.

Doesn't mean this is over, just that we're entering a different stage. Get vaccinated! Vaccinated people are still a few times less likely to get Covid than unvaccinated, and they're many times less likely to get severe Covid. Stay up to date on you vaccines! I'm getting my new booster at 5pm today, just in time for the Holidays.
