COVID-19 cases are on the rise all across the country, and Arizona is no exception. We are seeing a second spike that is ALREADY surpassing the spike that occured in July. With the holidays approaching, this is normally a time for celebrating in person together, but it is now more important than ever to stay home so that we can all get back to normal as soon as possible. Most of us are feeling extreme pandemic fatigue, but we must remain focused and diligent on the seriousness of this virus. One of our University of Arizona faculty posts weekly updates on our situation in Arizona, visit this link. The forecasts are stark and predict upcoming months will be the worst we have seen during the pandemic. Hospitals are overwhelmed and the capacity is extremely low and as medical personnel also become infected, that capacity becomes even lower.
