    Are you watching that growing geographic cluster of the newest wave of infections in MO, OK, AR, MS, and AL?

      CovidActNow has 9 states under caution:
      those about 10 new cases/day/100K:
      state, cases, infection rate, % vax (first dose, total population)
      NV 15.5 1.23 50%
      MO 14.6 1.14 45%
      AR 13.3 1.22 42%
      WY 12.7 1.07 39%
      UT 11.6 1.10 49%
      and those with high infection rates:
      MS 7.1 1.22 42%
      NE 2.5 1.17 52%
      OK 5.2 1.14 45%
      KS 4.9 1.13 49%
      with TX getting close:
      TX 5.2 1.10 48%

      Note with cases relatively low, a small outbreak can lead to a high infection rate, esp. in a small state. However, they need to be followed closely.

      Looking at county map, hotspots are popping up in more locations, typically with lower vaccination rates, e.g. southern IL and few in GA

      Yes. More reason for vaccine doubters to come around in those states. Meanwhile, keep those masks handy.
