I continue to check my little dashboard of San Francisco COVID numbers each morning to figure out whether going into an ice cream shop to procure inessential-but-tasty treats endangers just my waistline or also my lungs, heart, long-term dementia chances, etc, etc.

Lately, the SF numbers have come down enough such that I've resumed indoor inessential activities.

graph charting three numbers: The new reported cases number is low; the test positivity % was high a couple of months ago, but is now low; the COVID in sewers number are still a little above the pretty-safe line, but a couple of months ago were waaaay above that pretty-safe line

About a week and a half ago, while San Francisco's numbers were dipping to pretty-safe levels, I saw posts on my socials that California's overall numbers were at some record high. So I guess some parts of California are having a bad time. But for now, in San Francisco, I appreciate this opportunity to go into the market that carries that brand of hummus I like.
