I was almost going to be concerned about the decline in testing, but honestly with how little community spread their is it shouldn’t be a surprise that fewer people are getting tested.

Our 7-day average has now been lower than it’s ever been. It’s nice.

Just wanted to drop a quick note, as this will likely be the last of these posts.

First, thanks Rich. These posts have been invaluable to the discussion on the virus, the decisions to the virus, and honesty to both. Yeoman work.

Thanks too to the Pritzker Administration, Dr. Ezike specifically, and all who worked tirelessly and kept faith with doing what they felt the science showed and using science to steer the state through this horrific pandemic.

Lastly, thanks to all who reminded me, and reminded us all, that these are not mere numbers and figures. These are people, our Illinoisans, and keeping in mind all who struggled or lost during these times the reality of what a once a century pandemic means.

Just wanted to drop that.
