COVID Is Rising Again. Here’s What to Watch For..

Hello Roy,

COVID is back with the new strain being hyped.

The CDC data shows that COVID activity is elevated and increasing nationally, although hospitalizations remain low overall. Adults 65+ and babies under 1 currently have the highest hospitalization rates with this new strain. And as the virus continues to evolve, symptoms can vary from person to person.

KNOW THE SIGNS

Watch for:

Symptoms may begin mildly and become more severe.

If you develop trouble breathing, persistent chest pain or pressure, new confusion, difficulty staying awake, or pale/gray/blue skin, lips, or nail beds, seek emergency medical attention.
