But she pointed out that viral particles found in municipal waste water samples suggest there’s still a fairly constant transmission of the virus in the community. “And a substantial number of hospitalizations and deaths are continuing to occur.” She thinks NACI should have used much stronger wording in its booster-shot recommendations for people in the high-risk groups. NACI simply said they “may be offered” a vaccine, rather than specifically stating they “should get” a shot.
