XBB.1.16* hotspots per CDC #Nowcast

>5% spread in almost all regions

Region 6 estimate reads 14.4% (looks more reasonable than the previous week's estimate of 21.3% spread which looked suspect; https://twitter.com/RajlabN/status/1646896201738977280)

@tRAJectory I don't know. I'm in AZ, and my wife, daughter and I all had it recently. I have a coworker who's out now with covid. Now whether or not it's XBB.1.16, I can't say. But cases are definitely going up again here.

@perpetualmystic @tRAJectory The endless cycle. But at least we have the economy. 🙄 Meanwhile, I just got surgery for the #occulttetheredcord I didn't know I had, that March 2020 #Covid rendered life-limiting. Yes, I will be #FloMaskingForever.

@CharityFeb @tRAJectory sorry to hear about that medical issue. Ugh. And yes, we will be too! We never stopped masking. One of my wife's coworkers came to work, when extremely sick, gave it to her. But of course, everyone thinks it's just a "cold" now, or explains anything away as "allergies." Smh.
