The Columbia County Department of Health has released its numbers for today. Since Friday, there have been 33 new cases of COVID-19. The number of active cases being reported today is 17 fewer than on Friday, from which it can be inferred that, since Friday, 50 county residents have recovered from the virus.

    Contrary to statistics sited here, this can't be good. If the nursing home in Valatie is contributing, I can only guess they haven't learned much. The staff are free to mingle and I am guessing here once more, not wearing masks. Today, my oncologist made it clear, he doesn't want me to get covid. Get the new booster and stay away from the unmasked masses. Thanking the few who continue to be respectful and responsible!
