Doctors are sounding the alarm on another COVID-19 surge. Experts say it's because of the new strain of the virus and waning immunity from the last round of vaccinations shots targeting the new strain will soon be available at local pharmacies. A doctor from the University of Washing Washington suggests getting the vaccine. At the same time, you get your flu shot. I'd wait till the end of September so that you have durable protection from the middle of October through the middle of say March. That's really the window you want protection. The newest and most prevalent COVID strain currently circulating is estimated to account for more than one third of the cases across the US in just the first two weeks of August, that's triple from the level one month ago.
