Cases have increased recently and are extremely high. The numbers of hospitalized Covid patients and deaths in the Blount County area have also risen. The test positivity rate in Blount County is very high, suggesting that cases are being significantly undercounted.

Because of high spread, the C.D.C. recommends that even vaccinated people wear masks here.
