"The Health Department now says 44 COVID-positive patients were admitted to hospitals on Thursday, the most in a single day since May 1. An average of 31 COVID-positive patients a day were admitted to Rhode Island hospitals in the week from Nov. 1-7, which is above the 30-patients-per-day threshold that Gov. Gina Raimondo has said could trigger greater restrictions on Rhode Islanders."

Hospitalizations rise above the threshold. I'm not sure what the governor's strategy is now. More weak restrictions?

More and more police officers contracting covid. Will they start wearing masks?
"Unlike civilians, police officers deemed close contacts of COVID-19 cases who are asymptomatic do not have to quarantine for two weeks, since it would severely deplete the ranks of the department." For now it's only contacts - but as our cases climb up, will we be like Belgium that asks (essential or) health care workers with covid symptoms to come and report to work? Or will our government finally step forward and implement emergency measures? There is light at the end of the tunnel - no need to let covid run rampant now!!
