CDC BA.5 Covid Variant Updates
Get Tested, Get Boosted.

The fast-spreading BA.5 sub-variant of Omicron and its close relative BA.4 make up around 95% of COVID-19 cases in the U.S., according to recent estimates published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Hospital admissions in some regions now eclipse the worst days of the Delta variant wave last year, especially among Americans aged 70 and older.

If you've been exposed, get tested even if you do not have symptoms. Booster shots may be helpful in strengthening protection that may have decreased over time.
