It ain't the flu, folks: flu test positivity is currently at 0.87% but COVID test positivity is currently at 13.4%. If you have symptoms of a respiratory infection, kindly test yourself for COVID and wear a mask at least until the symptoms resolve. Please and thank you.

@DataDrivenMD I was on CoV bench last week. The previous week, something like 40% of 300ish specimens were positive. Who knows what that means for the public, though. Most were symptomatic, some HCW, maybe a couple of preop.
