COVID-19 cases are rising across various regions, including Rochester, NY, and Shelby County, TN, although concerns have diminished as the virus behaves more like typical respiratory illnesses due to widespread immunity. In Monroe County, the acting Public Health Commissioner noted that 98% of the U.S. population has some form of immunity, leading to updated guidelines that focus on symptom improvement rather than testing negative. Shelby County has reported over 316 new cases recently, with the state of Tennessee tallying nearly 2.8 million cases since the pandemic began. The CDC now reports that the KP.3.1.1 variant comprises over 52% of infections, while new subvariants of Omicron are also prevalent, accounting for 87.6% of positive tests in the U.S. Vaccination remains crucial, with new boosters targeting the latest variants, although only a small percentage of the population is fully up to date with their vaccinations. Experts emphasize the importance of hygiene and staying vigilant against new strains as immunity wanes.
