The good news is that new coronavirus cases are dropping, on average, nationwide, but the bad news is that eight U.S. states have seen an increase of positive COVID-19 test results — and Utah is one of them.
According to Johns Hopkins University data, the Beehive State, along with Alabama, Arkansas, Hawaii, Missouri, Nevada, Texas and Wyoming, have reported a hike in their seven-day average of coronavirus cases, The Associated Press reported Sunday.
- Seven of those states — minus Hawaii, where 55% of the population is vaccinated — have vaccination rates below the national average of 43.7%, according to the AP, citing data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
- The states with the lowest average number of pandemic cases have a higher than average percent of their populations vaccinated, reported the AP.

Red states. MS is in that mix also. Didn't someone on the national level say it was a hoax & it was all under control? I don't think having someone primarily concerned about his poll numbers making reassuring statements about a looming public health crisis that he doesn't understand is a good idea.
