This is a huge exaggeration. Positive cases are down nationwide over 57%. Sumter County is a small fish in a big pond. A half million Americans have died. Now that we have vaccines, the numbers of NEW cases will continue to drop. There are still people in hospitals who caught the virus before vaccines were available. Some of them may die and some may not. The virus is also mutating—another new strain in the Northeast. We still don’t know for sure if Pfizer or Moderna will be 95% effective against new strains. Get vaccinated and stop watching the news. Read the New England Journal of Medicine instead. Continue to wear a mask in public. We’re a long way from herd immunity.
