Omicron on the rise

New testing site alert: Nomi Health is offering walk-up COVID-19 testing at 419 W. Baltimore St. You can get a rapid PCR (30 minutes for results), nasal PCR (up to 36 hours for results) and rapid antigen (30 minutes for results). Pre-register here and find other Baltimore testing sites here.

 

Due to a network data incident involving the Maryland Department of Health, the city COVID dashboard has not been updated since Dec 3. But the state dashboard is 95% running and puts the Baltimore metro area at 103,441 confirmed cases.

 

How are you adapting to the uptick in cases? What changes are you making at work or home? Do you expect another lockdown? Has your company made any adjustments? Know the best spots to pick up at-home rapid tests? Let us know by replying to this email.
