Maryland’s COVID-19 Positivity Rate Drops to 7.38%, Hospitalizations Drop Below 1,000

June 8th, 2020 by WCBC Radio

Governor Larry Hogan today announced that the state of Maryland’s COVID-19 positivity rate continues to decline and now stands at 7.38%, and total current hospitalizations dropped below 1,000 for the first time since April 10. The governor also announced that beginning this week, state-operated testing sites at Six Flags America and other locations across the state will provide more summer-friendly testing hours. Tests are provided at no out-of-pocket cost to patients, and Marylanders do not need to exhibit symptoms or suspect exposure to COVID-19 in order to get tested.

    Sure, why be tested if you are exhibiting symptoms or suspect exposure. Let’s test every Tom, Dick and Harry that just happens to walk by. That will certainly improve the numbers and, after all, we want the numbers to look good.
