BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Patrice Jackson’s mask is not going anywhere with more contagious Delta variant cases on the rise.
“I wear it for safety reasons. I know they have this new strain of Covid so I just wear the mask to be safe,” Jackson said Tuesday as she headed to buy groceries in North Baltimore. “I thought it was all over, and then I said ‘Oh Lord, here we go again.’”
In Baltimore City over the past 4 weeks, cases are up 26 percent; the positivity rate is up 28 percent, but deaths (7-day average is zero) are down by 100 percent. @wjz#COVID19pic.twitter.com/rGBaVCLk9k
