49 additional deaths. Get a vaccination. and if you don’t wear a mask, you best be vaccinated. two high profile incidents in the last week where people were fully vaccinated but tested positive though asymptomatic…Yankess players and Bill Maher. You can transmit the virus when asymptomatic. This virus is damaging. Get vaccinated. Mask up.

Pay attention to the fact that anymore about half of the deaths are those who are in their 60’s or younger…
The vaccine uptake will improve when the daily deaths are just in pockets of the anti-vax crowd. Quietly they will go get a shot/or two and never tell a soul.
