The curve shows a trend of flattening of the curve in the 7-day moving average of the daily new cases at around 670. For now I will give that a huge bear hug praying it will even down the hill from there until and effective vaccine is availed to the citizens. Dr. Lia and her over qualified team have been doing a heck of a job considering the scarcity of potable water, sanitizers and recommended types of face masks. That is how our women are: Always detail oriented and persistent. All glory to them!!!
