*** CAUTIONARY NOTE ***

As has happened since the Covid-19 pandemic
began, U.S. leadership tends to lighten up on the
fight against Covid-19 when their hope for beat-
ing the pandemic outweighs their wise efforts to
prevent and counter the pandemic.

I've had Islit (Insulinitis, near-total to total loss of
endogenous insulin) since age 5, for over 61 years,
& live in a county that currently has "Substantial"
transmission & positivity rate, & as such, I will con-
tinue double-mask wearing & avoiding shopping
except for trips to buy food.

~~~

Website to check the transmission rate
in your county:
https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#county-view

Description of transmission rates https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/28/health/substantial-or-high-covid-19-transmission-wellness/index.html

o "Low" transmission is no more than
10 cases per 100,000 people, or a test
positivity rate of less than 5%.

o "Moderate" transmission is 10 to 50
cases per 100,000 people, or a positivity
rate between 5% and 8%.

o "Substantial" transmission is 50 to 100
cases per 100,000, or a positivity rate
between 8% and 10%

o "High" transmission is 100 or more cases
per 100,000 people or a positivity rate of
10% or higher.

If a county has values in two different trans-
mission levels, then the CDC uses the metric
that is higher.

~~~

In my county, 53 cases in last 7 days =
"Substantial" transmission & positivity rate
of 8.75% = "Substantial" positivity rate.

As I stated above, due to my having Islit
& a fear of Covid-19 that has not abated,
I will continue double-mask wearing &
avoiding shopping except for trips to buy
food & my next appointment with my doc-
tor on March 18 at which I plan to try to ...

... get the new Omnipod 5 (auto-dosing of
basal insulin based on integrated CGM glu-
cose levels).

Per the following U.S. graph, the U.S. reached
a 2022 low in 7 day average of new Covid-19
cases on April 1 2022, with 26,685 new cases.

Since then, a steady rise up to close to 115,000
new cases in mid-May 2022, that's remained in
that neighborhood since then. Latest level is
114,674 new cases as of July 28 2022. https://prohuman.net/pix2/CovidGraph-UnitedStates-NewCases-as-of-072822.png

The transmission rate in my county, depends
on which website you use, one said it's "High",
another said it's "Moderate". On a recent trip
to 2 grocery stores, I was the only customer
wearing a mask (2 masks, actually, as I'm
still double-masking).

All employees were wearing a mask.

...

As I stated above, due to my having Islit
& a fear of Covid-19 that has not abated,
I will continue double-mask wearing &
avoiding shopping except for trips to buy
food & my next appointment with my doc-
tor on March 18 at which I plan to try to ...

... get the new Omnipod 5 (auto-dosing of
basal insulin based on integrated CGM glu-
cose levels).

The Omnipod 5 had a wide-scale roll-out
per an article dated June 5 2022, and after
22 days of trying to get it, beginning on
June 22 2022 and not being OKed by the
pharmacy authorized to provide it until
July 14 2022, I received it July 18 2022.

All of those problems documented in
this newsgroup at the following posting
thread: https://groups.google.com/g/misc.health.diabetes/c/SmiuxqSoTSU/m/ShqsbNMaAgAJ

My usage of the Omnipod 5 documented
in the following threads: https://groups.google.com/g/misc.health.diabetes/c/SmiuxqSoTSU/m/ShqsbNMaAgAJ https://groups.google.com/g/misc.health.diabetes/c/4pWKB3MXrQk/m/yf1Ue7oTAAAJ
