Something worth noting is that all this data is ‘Raw Data’. Just because a town has more positive cases – there are many factors to consider: Being that the testing stations have increased the number of cases has as well. Additionally, perhaps the overall feeling may have people not as concerned to test themselves when previously some may have decided to just stay home and not get tested.
Certainly one should continue within the community to be listening to all announcements from both guidance of our local leaders in office and Vaad Harabonim.
