decreased

slightly

has
been
flat
for
about
a

are
stable
and
favorable.

are
looking
more

still

to
require
other
precautions,
such
as
social
distancing,

use
of
masks
whenever
you
are
outside
the
home.
Please
remember
that,
even
though
you
have
been
able
to
be
vaccinated,
it
does
not
mean
that
others
have
been
able
to
be
vaccinated,
so
continue
to
practice
the
precautions
provided
from
the
beginning.
Please
help
us
to
make
these
indicators
continue
to
head
in
a
favorable
direction.

wear
your
masks,

to
social
distance

to
wash
your
hands.

part
now,

a
year

last
week
the
food
arrived
in

area
next
week
identifies
the
first
confirmed
case
in
our
community.
Despite
the
fact
that
the
launch
of
the
vaccine
continues
forward,
we
have
to
wait
and
be
patient
until
everyone
c
Get
your
vaccine.
Please
continue
to
practice
the
three
w.
B
's,
it's
great
that
there
are
people
who
are
already
getting
their
vaccine,
but
until
they
get
their
whole
series,
they
are
not
protected
and
most
people
have
n't
gotten
their
shots.
So
don't
assume
that
because
you,
you
have
received
your
vaccine,
everyone
has
done
it.
Please.
I
want
you
to
assume
that
no
one
has
received
your
vaccine
and
continue
to
wear
your
masks,
keep
your
distance
and
do
your
part
every
day
every
day.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
attention
and
your
time
take
care
and
stay
safe,
except.
