Virginia

COVID levels have ticked up around the commonwealth. It’s practically become a tradition, as common as forever-running air conditioning, antsy kids, and respites at the beach, says the Virginia Mercury.

We should all get used to the fact that each season, there will be an increase in infections and we should protect ourselves as best as we can.

How do we do that? By boosting our vaccines, practicing good hygiene, including washing our hands often, staying home if sick, and testing if we suspect an infection.

Washington State

COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations, and emergency department visits are rising in Washington. However, according to the Washington State Standard, most of the state’s residents have yet to get the most updated vaccine booster for the disease.

Dr. Eric Chow, chief of communicable disease epidemiology and immunizations for Seattle and King County’s public health department, believes that even at this point, COVID carries a higher risk of mortality than influenza.

He believes that before the pandemic, we were already concerned about the risk of fatalities from flu, but now we have COVID to add to the mix.

If you ask us, now is the perfect time to stock up on hand sanitizers and vitamins!
