## Resource

COVID-19 cases are rising in 48 states, including Kansas—flagged as “likely growing”—but emergency room visits remain low, under 0.1% of all visits. With COVID no longer a reportable condition in Kansas, health officials rely on ER data to track trends, which show hotspots around Topeka, Kansas City, and Wichita suburbs. Wastewater testing still indicates low virus levels statewide. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
