DC, Maryland and Virginia have seen new daily case numbers explode to all time highs in the last week. (https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases - Select a state or territory from the drop down menu over the chart)
The next week or two is going to see lots of places pegging the meter on new cases.
Like never before.
Many here will call you a liar. Maddening.
RE: Maryland and Virginia have seen new daily case numbers explode to all time highs in the last week.
Case numbers again. We already know that Omicron is several times more infectious than the previous variants. What I want to know is:
1. How many percent of hospital beds are occupied by Omicron patients?
2. How many have died of Omicron?
Pretty crazy in NOVA.
I’ve known more people in the past two weeks personally that got it then during the whole pandemic.
Perhaps, but hospital admissions and deaths will remain moderate, just watch.

Pre-omnicron the number in the ICU was 10. Now at 23. Part of that growth is just cooler weather.
Interesting it looks like the Northeast is driving the case load counts up. NY, Michigan,Mass, ect. All those states with the tightest restrictions. Doesn’t seem it’s working.
