[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. Yes, MoCo is going to high. Just wanted to pop in to clarify that transmission has been relatively similar for most of the summer, actually. What has increased is hospitalizations, which are a lagging indicator. What that means is that it has taken a few weeks for the BA5 variant to cause hospitalizations, but now it has actually passed them beyond the threshold the CDC set to push us into the high category. So it’s not any more or less safe from a transmission-only standpoint. I personally felt transmission was already high enough to warrant a mask indoors if I wanted to avoid infection. There is too much political resistance for them to put a mask mandate back in place but just know that if you are trying to avoid getting covid you should absolutely be masking in a high quality mask indoors at this time.
