COVID numbers are falling here, as they are across the U.S. now. We're back to averages from about December 28, so we're a little behind some other parts of the Northeast. Still a little over twice the number of cases as prior to the Omicron wave, though I would expect within another three weeks or so the local wave will be over.

Looking at national numbers, it seems the first metros to have a full recovery are Cleveland and Baltimore, with DC not far behind. Cuyahoga County is down to only 35 cases per 100,000, and still dropping! The actual case total there is much, much lower than the rolling average because of how quickly the numbers are going down (only 91 cases across a county of 1.3 million yesterday!). Cleveland was an early metro for Omicron, with the spike before Christmas. I'm going to continue watching the area, because I'm interested to see how low post-Omicron case counts can get.
