Heavens to Betsy! The Centers for Disease Control this week stopped posting daily updates of new Covid cases and death which were the basis for the FEHBlog’s Friday Covid charting. The FEHBlog’s work travel has not allowed him time to consider a new approach to his Covid charting.

Alternatively, there’s the CDC’s weekly interpretation of its Covid statistics. The interpretation notes

CDC is using multiple surveillance systems to monitor variants in the United States. Data from each system plays an important role in helping us understand the emergence of new variants, whether they’re entering the United States and spreading, and which variants are most prevalent within communities. On October 20, 2022, COVID Data Tracker added a new Variant Summary page, which summarizes three systems that are being used to monitor variants. For more information on these systems, see A Closer Look.

Have a great weekend.
