Dr.Ruth's Newsletter

Dr. Ruth Ann Crystal's latest medical newsletter is up on Substack, and as always, it's very informative. She writes:

"As we move into the July 4th holiday, COVID hospitalizations, emergency room visits and wastewater levels are all low, but temperatures especially in the southern U.S. are very high. We continue to have a 'variant soup' of many different subvariants showing up, but none are pushing the others out which is good news. As many people in the hottest areas will be moving indoors for the foreseeable future, it will be important for people to do a COVID test if they get a 'summer cold'."

After every holiday weekend when people travel and gather, there's usually a spike in COVID cases, so let's see what happens this time.  I have a feeling that there won't be very many people masking in the large fireworks crowds and at the Capital Fourth concert!
