Bobcats Make the Difference
Managing an Evolving COVID-19
As the COVID-19 Pandemic enters the third year, its impact has changed in some important ways. With the development of safe and effective vaccines, the expanded availability of testing, and therapeutic agents that decrease the risk of severe illness both in and out of the hospital, we are seeing a different pattern of disease emerging. While Omicron subvariants continue to cause new infections, the incidence of severe illness appears lower and fewer hospitalizations are occurring than during previous waves of infection. This is most likely due to rising population immunity associated with vaccination and natural infection. However, COVID-19 will continue to circulate and require that we continue to assess risk and determine appropriate prevention measures.
