More “green” on these charts than there has been in quite a while, with cases, positivity, and hospitalizations all ⬇️. Mitigation plus vaccination having an impact. Have hope, and redouble efforts in this race against the virus- We can make it to the finish if we work together!

Do justly, now.
Love mercy, now.
Walk humbly, now.

but neither are you free to abandon it.”
