Wafaa El-Sadr, MD, MPH, MPA reminds readers that the pandemic is not over as the seven-day average rate of positive COVID-19 test results in New York City increased to 1.27%.
“This should be a wake-up call,” Dr. El-Sadr said, adding, “Every effort must be made to enhance vaccination uptake, encourage testing and remind people of what they can do to protect themselves and their loved ones.”
