Murthy said that the nation can't ignore the possibility of a new spike but that it is in a better position now than it was in the previous two years.
The surgeon general said that Covid hasn't gone away. There may be ups and downs in the months ahead, but our goal is to keep people out of the hospital to save their lives. We have more tools to do that.
If we get people these tools, we can actually get through waves that may come and go.
In the last week, Covid-19 struck official Washington twice, with second gentleman Douglas Emhoff testing positive, followed by a positive test for Michael Martin, the prime minister of Ireland who was on a visit to Washington, D.C., and who sat next to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
Murthy was asked if the two cases suggested that Washington was moving too quickly.
I don't think we can afford to move on, but I do think that we can live our lives and not let it affect us.
