States are lifting (and in some cases, re-imposing) restrictions. Changes to guidelines and protocols occur frequently and restrictions vary greatly by state and locality. The US surpassed 3 million cases while the mortality rate is 4.3% of all known cases. Over 350,000 cases were reported in the last 7 days.
We are continuing to monitor spikes in cases that may be attributed to increases in testing and large-scale gatherings. Telework when possible, social distancing, eliminating non-essential travel, and applying aggressive preventive measures all contribute to lessening the spread of the virus. We strongly encourage everyone to proactively plan and prepare for continuing changes in guidelines. We are available to assist as necessary.
