Dr. Tharp’s reports lately have reflected good progress for the State and particularly for Clinton County.
Dr. Tharp indicated that the necessary isolation required by the weather may be just one (state-wide) factor in the notable improvement in the COVID-19 numbers.
Vaccines, weather isolation, existing immunity from prior cases and successful distancing and mask procedures all contribute to the undeniably improving numbers in the state and Clinton County.
