With today’s daily COVID-19 numbers, a couple of charts that should temper positive feelings about the decline of the virus.
One shows the state’s low vaccination rate. The other shows, over recent time, a rising number of hospitalizations, way below the peak, true, but still a trend in the wrong direction. (Down today, however.)
Today’s numbers:
New cases in 24 hours: 289
Deaths: 2
Active cases: 1,769, up from 1,659 yesterday
Hospitalizations: 208, down from 216 yesterday.
Vaccinations: About 6,400.
