BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2022 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Affirming that Palm Beach County is in a very good place right now for COVID-19 spread, the latest Kinsa Healthweather report rates PBC at 21. That is a dramatic drop from where we were during the spread of the Omicron variant, when Palm Beach County was routinely at a 99 for “very high risk.”

Kinsa is a respected health data company that analyzes anonymous data transmitted from hundreds of thousands of “connected” thermometers. Comparing current current levels of sickness against historic levels of sickness, Kinsa is able to determine what’s normal, what isn’t, and how illness is spread.

The company is widely credited with accurately predicting the first wave of COVID-19, and providing vital information to health officials as subsequent COVID-19 waves grew and spread.

Miami-Dade County, and Broward County, are also in the “low risk” green zone, suggesting that COVID spread is minimal across South Florida.
