Here's the thing. Since someone was sworn into office on Monday, the public health offices have been ordered to silence their public information offices. So news blackout. This may be temporary, as part of an effort to let the new peeps get their feet under them. Or maybe not.

Regardless, we do have this article, which shows a map of wastewater monitoring Covid concentration levels, which is a decent way to figure out what's going on in your state. Of course, Covid is not the only pathogen in circulation right now, there's a new strain of pertussis, or whooping cough, that's been going around, norovirus is always a problem, and I'm not sure about the flu season.

From what I've heard/read, loss of your sense of taste is not a symptom in the latest strain of Covid!

So get your jabs and keep yourself as healthy as possible!

Things have never really moved in any kind of lower direction, except in the cases where the numbers and targets get fudged. That it's now on blackout is probably someone trying to suppress information that will make him look bad and incompetent, but the person in charge now should realize that everything he does makes him look bad and incompetent, so he may as well let it go on.
