Map of the United States titled “COVID-19 Heat Map, Based on CDC Wastewater Data and Levels (U.S.)” from the Pandemic Mitigation Collaborative (PMC), dated March 9, 2026. States are color-coded by transmission level using CDC wastewater data: very high (dark red), high (red), moderate (orange), low (yellow), very low (light yellow), and limited data (striped). Several Midwest and Southern states—such as Minnesota, Illinois, Alabama, and Mississippi—are shown at high levels, while much of the West and parts of the Southeast show low or very low levels. A note at the bottom states that transmission is subsiding at the end of the 12th wave and no state is currently in the “Very High” category.

Graphic titled “National COVID-19 Estimates (U.S.)” from the Pandemic Mitigation Collaborative model, dated March 9, 2026 (pmc19.com/data). Estimated infections: 1 in 87 people actively infectious (1.2%), about 565,000 new daily infections, 4.1 million infections in the past week, and 54 million infections so far in 2026, with cumulative infections per person estimated at 5.10. Estimated Long COVID outcomes: 28,000–113,000 new daily cases and 205,000–820,000 new weekly cases. Estimated excess deaths linked to infections: 160–270 per day and 1,200–1,900 per week. A note states the U.S. is experiencing roughly 565,000 daily infections amid moderate transmission levels.

Table titled “COVID-19 State Prevalence Estimates” from the Pandemic Mitigation Collaborative (PMC) model, dated March 9, 2026. The table lists U.S. states with CDC transmission level, estimated percent actively infectious, and probability that someone in a room of 10, 25, 50, or 100 people is infectious. Several states—including Alabama, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, and Mississippi—are marked “High,” with infection estimates around 1 in 33 to 1 in 38 people. Many other states are listed as moderate or low, while some—such as California, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, and the District of Columbia—are categorized as very low. A note indicates some states have limited data reporting.

ICE has spun a massive surveillance web. We talked to people caught in it The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE and Border Patrol, is using a broad web of surveillance tools - purchased as its budget has ballooned under this administration - to monitor, apprehend and intimidate the people it seeks to deport and the U.S. citizens critical of its policies.

The Trump administration's mass deportation dragnet has unleashed a new wave of government surveillance across the country.

In Minnesota, federal agents continue to surveil, track, and intimidate people for exercising our First Amendment rights.

Whether it's ChatGPT or some other company, no one should be building tech that enables killer robots & mass surveillance.

Congress should ban both of these things. Until they do people should be boycotting to hit companies like ChatGPT where it hurts! Pledge to boycott now: quitgpt.org

Every COVID infection adds risk, not protection. The more times someone is infected, the higher their risk of developing Long COVID.

Reducing infections is one of the most important ways to protect long-term health. The Five Pillars of Protection help lower risk by layering prevention strategies:
