Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
Days after governors in Texas and Mississippi announced that their states would ease coronavirus restrictions, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published new research reaffirming that mask mandates can slow the spread of the coronavirus and that increased virus cases and deaths are associated with allowing dining at restaurants.
Researchers found that case counts and deaths “slowed significantly” within 20 days of putting mask mandates into place, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said at a White House news briefing Friday, reaffirming federal guidance that people should wear masks when they are in public and around others.
“I know the idea of relaxing mask-wearing and getting back to everyday activities is appealing, but we’re not there yet,” Walensky said. “And we have seen this movie before: When prevention measures like mask mandates are rolled back, cases go up.”Comment

Spring Break veers toward ‘normal’ in Florida – despite coronavirus pandemic
Nary a face mask was to be found this week as college students flocked to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., a traditional hotspot for the annual Spring Break ritual of beer, bikinis and boisterous behavior.
"Florida hasn’t skipped a beat," Michigan resident Jack Gumeinny, 21, told the Sun Sentinel of South Florida as he surveyed the sunny scene along the city’s famous Strip.
He last visited two years ago but returned "to see what it’s like now with COVID," he told the newspaper.
The Davenport University junior wasn’t fazed by a lack of social distancing among his fellow revelers.
"We’re not in the at-risk group," he said.

Utah Gov: We Will Roll Back Mask Mandate on April 10
During an interview with the Fox News Channel on Saturday, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) said that the state will roll back its mask mandate while keeping the mandate for schools and large gatherings in place. Cox stated that while he’s unsure if April 10 is exactly the right date, he feels confident about the state’s trajectory given its vaccine progress.
Cox said, [relevant remarks begin around 2:50] “So, we’ve been working on this with our legislature. Look, everyone wants to end the mask mandates. We don’t want these to go on one day longer than is absolutely necessary, but we also have this opportunity right now. We’re vaccinating over 25,000 people every day in the state of Utah. And so, figuring out the right moment to do that, again, we’ve been working very closely with our legislature. We will be rolling back part of the mask mandate on April 10. We will still have a mask mandate for schools and for large gatherings, but the broader mandate will go away on April 10. Whether that’s too early or too late, I don’t know, but what I do know is that right now, every person in Utah with a risk factor above one for the coronavirus, that’s everybody over the age of 50 and anybody with any underlying comorbidities, are now eligible to get the vaccine. And we anticipate that by April 1, every adult in the state of Utah will be eligible for the vaccine. We should have about 1.5 million vaccines in the state by April 10, when that mandate goes away. So, we feel really good about where we’re headed and where we’re going to end up.”
We will still have a mask mandate for schools and for large gatherings, but the broader mandate will go away on April 10.Comment
