I must admit, I’m starting to be impressed. Like many, I had my concerns of how many were wandering around in public, infected and spreading without knowing it.
But the numbers don’t lie and the positives been hovering in the mid thirties for awhile now. Maybe we did catch and stop it in time?
We should know for sure at the end of these two weeks so let’s all just do what we have to do and get it over with please.
