It’s a form of “false positive” news about the pandemic.<\/p>\n

What we hear this morning is that infection\/hospitalization rates are leveling off, that they now are at pre-Thanksgiving levels. Is that good news? Sure it is. At least for today it is.<\/p>\n

What’s more, we hear about vaccination rates accelerating. Twenty million Americans have received at least the first dose of vaccine. That, too, is encouraging.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow is another day. Next week is another week. Which means that we intend to continue doing what we need to do to stay healthy.<\/p>\n

It’s good to remind everyone that this kind of false positive news is no signal to let up, no time to back off.<\/p>\n

I take only a small measure of relief to hear the news about infection and hospitalization rates. We are keeping our masks within arm’s reach at all times.<\/p>\n\n
