Eleven counties moved back to more restrictive tiers in California’s coronavirus reopening system Tuesday, an unprecedented regression as the state contends with an increasingly worrying surge in infections.

Among the backsliders were San Diego, Sacramento and Stanislaus counties, all of which moved into the purple tier — the strictest category of the state’s reopening roadmap.

Armenia and Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh peace deal is quite the surprise – Vox

The war between Armenia and Azerbaijan came to an abrupt end on Monday, just hours after it looked as though the conflict might enter a more dangerous phase that some feared would escalate into ethnic cleansing.

(Translation – mine – Two imperialists; Turkey and Russia cut up populations for their own needs/vanity. The losers are Armenia and Azerbaijan.)

Four more regions introduce stricter Covid recommendations – Radio Sweden | Sveriges Radio

The new regions are Kalmar, Västerbotten and Norrbotten, while Blekinge region has chosen to go ahead without the green light from the Public Health Agency. “We need to act now, we cannot wait for the process” said Bengt Wittesjö, who is the regional infectious disease officer in Blekinge. Nothing stops a region from going ahead with their own local advice, said Sara Byfors, department head of the Public Health Agency, as long as the advice is clear.

Asymptomatic COVID-19 nurses allowed to stay on job in North Dakota amid staff shortage | TheHill

North Dakota, as of Monday, is now facing “high-risk” levels of COVID-19 infections, prompting recommendations that restaurants, bars and venues limit their capacity to 25 percent. The state has been reporting record levels of coronavirus cases recently, much like other parts of the country. North Dakota has more than 10,800 active COVID-19 cases. Despite those numbers, Burgum has resisted calls from health experts to enact a statewide mask-mandate, instead choosing to encourage mask use and relying on “personal responsibility.”

Covid Superspreader Risk Is Linked to Restaurants, Gyms, Hotels – Bloomberg

The reopening of restaurants, gyms and hotels carries the highest danger of spreading Covid-19, according to a study that used mobile phone data from 98 million people to model the risks of infection at different locations.

Researchers at Stanford University and Northwestern University used data collected between March and May in cities across the U.S. to map the movement of people. They looked at where they went, how long they stayed, how many others were there and what neighborhoods they were visiting from. They then combined that information with data on the number of cases and how the virus spreads to create infection models.
