Reply to comment by Admirable-Reveal-412 in Antidotally - Covid seems to be exploding in Northern & Central Vermont. Anyone else seeing this? by JerryKook

You're friend's doctor's info is a little out of date.

The January 17th data showed a big spike in waste water data

but by January 23rd it was back to..."normal" I guess.

https://vtdigger.org/2023/02/01/vermonts-overall-covid-levels-remain-low-as-burlington-wastewater-data-returns-to-normal/

Case numbers, hospitalizations and deaths are all significantly below what they were this time last year or the year before.

That’s because no one is reporting it and less people are seeking care unless their symptoms are extreme.

And then the Jan 30 numbers show a continued upward trend, https://vtdigger.org/2023/02/08/vermont-surpasses-900-covid-deaths-while-state-levels-are-low/

Covid is the fourth leading cause of death behind heart disease, cancer, and things like ODs.
