The Delta variant is definitely doing us, all right.

I'm staying in Massachusetts, it's summertime, and the
transmission risks have changed accordingly.
The worst place to be is Cape Cod, because of
summer vacations and tourism; the counties around Cape Cod
have the highest risk designations in the state.
(Barnstable County)


My location in western Massachusetts, in New York, is moderate risk.
Could swing in either direction.
Summertime is a big tourist season here in Berkshire County,
so there is transmission of COVID happening.
I observe locally, however, that
businesses are requiring clients and customers to wear facemasks indoors; it had changed to facemask-free, and the restrictions are back.
Good idea. Better to contain transmission than to aggravate it.
