    There’s a lot of southern states that have remarkably low positivity rates. Their vaccination rates can’t be very good there, so I’m a curious what the story is there.

        Not sure there was much to that surprisingly. The woman who reported it, Rebekah Jones, is completely batshit.

      Just check the waste water data and find out if the concentration of covid is high

      Were you living in the South during the outbreak, or purely speculating?

        I lived here the whole time and that person is correct.

        However my anecdotal experience is most people are refusing to test. Can’t get positive if you don’t test. 😩

      Many people had COVID and lived and thus acquired immunity. I vaguely remember reading something along these lines during the last year’s sick season, that the total immunity is actually much higher since it’s a combination of immunity through immunization plus immunity after actual illness.
