      What’s Up, Doc?

      COVID-19 cases and deaths in the United States have dropped to their lowest levels in nearly a year, and the number of people vaccinated continues to grow. As of May 27, 2021, nearly 133 million people in the U.S. are fully vaccinated, and the national percentage of COVID-19 tests that came back positive over the last 7 days was less than 3%. This is one of the lowest rates the United States has seen since widespread testing began. These encouraging trends come as many people are making plans to travel, gather with friends and family, and resume other activities they had avoided since the start of the pandemic.

      As you make plans this summer, consider adding “visit my doctor” back to your list of things to do. Getting regular health care, routine screenings, and vaccinations – including one of the COVID-19 vaccines – can help prevent serious health problems, save money, and lead to better health. Health care facilities have extensive safety protocols in place to reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. If you remain concerned about the safety of visiting a health care facility, ask your doctor or healthcare provider about their safety protocols or whether they offer telehealth services. You might be surprised by the variety of care you can get through telehealth. If you’ve delayed medical care during the pandemic, now is the best time to see your doctor or healthcare provider.
