Covid-19 numbers are improving, but infections could grow exponentially with Super Bowl gatherings

R&I NV — Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations are decreasing across much of the United States, but health experts warned that could change if fans gathered Sunday to watch the Super Bowl with people from outside their households.

“When people get together in private residences in close proximity, that is one of the single most effective ways to spread this disease,” Kentucky Public Health Commissioner Dr. Steven Stack said. “We can’t afford to have the disease spread now, with these mutations and these variants.”
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said, “while the instinct may be to celebrate together, we cannot get cocky.”
