Wed, 12/16/2020 - 4:28pm -- tim Vermont Department of Health Health Commissioner Mark Levine, M.D. said at last Friday’s press conference that it’s now been about two weeks since Thanksgiving, but so far, we have not seen a “surge on a surge” of COVID-19 cases. “None of our recent contact tracing efforts have revealed clusters of cases coming from this holiday,” Dr. Levine said. “We hope this means that Vermonters either avoided Thanksgiving gatherings or kept them small … and we truly appreciate that.” However, said Dr. Levine, “These numbers are not something we should develop a new comfort level around.”
