Along with the recent uptick in cases of Covid-19 around the country (and around the state), the numbers have jumped in our tri-county as well. The biggest uptick (by ratio) is in San Benito county where last month there were 12 active cases of the virus, and as of yesterday there are now 121….with 113 of those reported in the last week. Although the cause of the cases is under investigation, so far most transmissions have been traced to be from contact between people in the same household….with a close second being contact with family and friends outside the household…..such as dinner gatherings, weddings, baby showers, and parties.
