Hi,
this
is
Mayor
Hamilton,
it's
November,
22nd
2021
Thanksgiving
week.
I
wish
you
all
Happy
Thanksgiving,
as
you
celebrate
and
gather
with
family
and
those
you
love
I'm,
giving
a
quick
update
on
the
pandemic,
we're
not
out
of
the
woods
we're
continuing
to
see
some
backsliding
in
terms
of
deaths
and
case
numbers
and
hospitalizations
locally
and
in
the
state.
A
I
I
want,
maybe
to
focus
on
that
most
fundamental
impact
of
deaths
that
we
see
reminding
us
how
important
this
is
as
we're
Gathering
and
giving
thanks
remembering
that
about
a
year
ago
we
were
entering
into
a
very
difficult
winter,
with
60
70
80.
It
got
as
high
as
100
deaths
per
day
in
the
state
of
Indiana
due
to
coven.
That
was
what
we
were
heading
into
last
winter.
Of
course,
this
was
before
vaccines
were
available.
A
As
vaccines
became
available,
we
brought
that
number
of
of
a
hundred
deaths
per
day
in
the
state
down
and
down
and
down
so
that
by
March
April
we
were
in
single
digit
deaths
per
day
and
stayed
there
for
most
of
the
summer
got
as
low
as
just
a
single
handful
of
numbers.
Five,
four
deaths.
A
day
the
Delta
variant
arrived
and
in
August
we
started
to
see
that
climb
again
it
got
as
high
as
40
deaths
per
day
over
the
late
winter.
A
Just
in
the
last
few
weeks
months,
it's
gotten
better
and
we've
declined
again
to
20
deaths
per
day
in
the
state
or
so
now,
but
remember
we
were
at
below
five
deaths
per
day
in
the
summer,
so
we're
we're
seeing
significantly
more
impact.
This
is
the
permanent
impact.
This
is
the
loss
of
fellow
family
members,
friends,
Hoosiers
still
dying
from
this
pandemic
locally
in
Monroe
County
we've
had
a
death
a
day
on
average
over
the
last
10
or
12
days.
A
We
have
not
had
a
period
like
that
locally
since
January
11
months,
so
while
well,
there
are
good
things,
we're
making
some
progress,
we're
really
seeing
some
concerns
that
people
of
different
ages
we're
losing
people.
So
this
is
still
serious.
We're
worried
about
the
winter
I
wish
I
didn't
have
to
say
this
and
bring
this
message
to
you,
but
we
we
are
concerned
please
get
vaccinated.
Thank
you
for
all
who
are
vaccinated.
Thank
you
for
those
who've
gotten
the
boosters.
Thank
you
for
masking
and
distancing
you
know.
A
Monroe
county
is
the
only
county
in
the
state
that
has
a
mass
mandate
for
inside,
because
we
know
it
helps
our
health
board.
Our
directors
follow
the
science
I
appreciate
that
we're
doing
the
best
we
can
to
keep
everybody
safe.
We
all
want
to
celebrate
Thanksgiving.
We
all
want
to
be
with
those
we
love.
We
want
to
do
everything
we
can
so
that
fewer
people
pass
away
from
this
disease.
A
It's
still
happening
it's
very,
concerning
we
can
make
the
difference
with
vaccinations
with
flu
shots
with
being
careful,
we'll
get
through
it,
but
we
need
to
stay
steady,
so
I
do
hope.
You
have
a
great
week
for
Thanksgiving.
It
is
a
time
to
celebrate
family
and
loved
ones
in
the
future.
We
know
there
are
a
lot
of
circles
that
have
lost
people
due
to
this
pandemic
and
we
want
to
do
everything
we
can
to
to
reduce
that
number
going
forward.
So
there
are
fewer
empty
seats
at
those
tables.
A
So
thank
you
again
for
all
you're
doing.
Please
take
care
of
each
other.
Please
thank
the
healthcare
workers.
The
essential
workers
who
make
everything
continue
to
work,
try
to
take
a
deep
breath
and
not
not
get
tempted
to
get
into
Political
fights
about
this.
Let's
just
follow
the
science
and
keep
each
other
safe,
so
Happy
Thanksgiving
to
you
all,
safe
Thanksgiving
and
we'll
talk
to
you
again
soon.
