Practice Room Update:

We are again out of practice room spots and our waitlist is full.
Mandel (I) am going to the Administration on Monday to discuss options to help ease the practice room congestion.
Please be respectful and friendly to each other, even if your practice time is less than ideal.

...focus is on the COVID-19 Fourth Wave.

Here are some talking points for you to share:

Why Cases are Increasing:
- Variants
  - B.1.1.7 is now dominant in the US (CDC)
  - An outbreak of P.1 has been seen in Illinois (IPDH)
- Relaxing controls
  - Mask mandates have been lifted in some areas (not in IL or campus)
  - Increased travel
  - Holiday gatherings
What You Can Do:
- Get vaccinated
  - Vaccines will probably limit hospitalizations/deaths
- Do your part
  - Keep to your assigned testing schedule
  - Keep your mask on
  - Keep your physical distance
  - Keep your in-person gatherings small
