USA COVID Current Events

"Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to President Biden, warned Sunday the nation could be at risk of a new surge of COVID-19 infections as the number of daily cases in the U.S. has remained at a plateau. A leveling-off at such a high rate of infection is 'a risk,' Fauci said. While new coronavirus variants identified in the United Kingdom and South Africa are "playing a part" in the spikes of new cases, Fauci said, an increase in travel for spring break and rolling back of mitigation methods have also contributed."

“Dr. Deborah Birx says every American COVID-19 death after the first 100,000 could've been mitigated, but a Democratic lawmaker says she's to blame for 'enabling' Trump.” Business Insider

About the Photo

This year’s March full moon is the “Paschal Full Moon” and part of Christian holy week. Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday following the full Moon that occurs on or just after the spring equinox. So, to put it another way: Easter is observed on the Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon.

This full moon is also known as the “Sap” Moon because is so named because March marks the time of year when the sap of sugar maple trees begins to flow, and they can be tapped.
