See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Contact your doctor/local hospital, by phone for evaluation and testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Get Covid vaccine. Wish you good health.

Hi doctors. I hear where I live the percentage of people who tested positive for covid over 7 days over the last few weeks has been 0.57%. Today it went UP to 0.69%. Is this concerning that it is going UP? Could it be related to the delta variant?
