was down to about 1.5% in early June, but then it soared up to about 15% over the next several weeks. It was even higher elsewhere in the state. A couple of days ago it was 5.6% and trending downward, but it feels to me like it could easily spike again, especially with holiday gatherings. Our idiot governor and GOP state legislature seem to do everything they can to aid and abet the virus.
