The delta variant is no joke. Cases are spiking and I knew that the "honor code" around masking wasn't going to work. Now people are also confused because the CDCs is recommending masking in certain indoor situations. I spoke to someone at a local community health care center and they said that the hospitals are full, but the deaths aren't recorded as COVID-related. People with underlying conditions are waiting to go to the hospital, but their conditions are being exacerbated by COVID. So even though COVID is the issue, they're recorded as going in for their other condition.
