    No updates today. It’s Sunday! As we start the month, numbers of cases are rising again, the percent positive is going up, Delta is increasing, and whispers of returning to mask wearing and distancing are starting up. There is also an increase in anger of those vaccinated against those who are not, and signs of depression that this isn’t going away any time soon. Fun for all! Hang in there….
