Just as the nation seemed like it was turning a corner in the pandemic, COVID-19 infections are on the rise once more, and it’s targeting a very specific population: Those who remain unvaccinated.
According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, on Thursday, July 16 alone there were 33,000 new cases of the coronavirus, bringing the seven day average ending July 16 to 23,600 — an increase of 70% from the previous two-week period.
