New CDC ensemble forecast through February.
New hospital admissions should continue to fall and new weekly deaths should peak in the coming weeks.
Most states have peaked and are declining now on hospital admissions. Though there are a few that haven't peaked yet or are expected to plateau over the coming weeks. Check your local conditions at this point as the Omicron wave has not been uniform.
Ukraine is among a handful of countries giving cash for coronavirus vaccination. Adults get 1,000 гривна, and next week teens will as well. It is about $35, which in Ukraine is more like a couple hundred dollars in purchasing power.
The adult program was announced in mid-November and started in mid-December. The teen program was announced in December and starts next week.
It isn't clear from the overall vaccination rate that it had much of an effect unfortunately on increasing vaccination.
