ATLANTA, GA – Memorial Day celebrations, and the lack of mask and social estrangement that accompanied them, have contributed to the recent accumulation of coronavirus figures, according to a report released Tuesday.
An expert warns that the same can happen after Labor Day if we don’t pay more attention, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The report through Amber Schmidtke, a specialist in microbiology and immunology who worked with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, showed a more than 600% increase in the moving average of Fallen Day instances to July 11.
At this point, cases peaked during the summer depending on when the first symptoms were reported, according to Schmidtke’s knowledge research from the Georgia Department of Public Health.
The Atlanta newspaper reported that Georgia had a build-up in cases almost every week from mid-May to mid-July.
According to Schmidtke, the increase was concentrated first outdoors by the Atlanta Metro in border counties and tourism-driven communities.
Georgia is bigger now, the state is still “in a fragile situation,” Schmidtke said.
“We’ve made progress, but we haven’t gotten back to where we were before the sudden summer surge, and we’re about to start the flu season,” Schmidtke told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Schmidtke, who tracks the pandemic and posts about it on his Facebook page, commissioned the Georgia Hospital Association and civic teams to write the report.
Schmidtke pleaded with the apparent push after Labor Day: wear hats, stay 6 feet away, and restrict meetings to less than 10 people.
