In his report, OCTA fellow Dr. Guido David said the positivity rate in the region rose to 0.77 from December 16 to 22 while the positivity rate in NCR was at its lowest from December 12 to 18 at 0.62
“This uptick may be dismissed as merely an effect of the holidays. On the other hand, this could also be the beginning of a change in the trend,” David said. “My interpretation at this time is we are seeing a holiday uptick due to the increased number of social gatherings, and this is not a cause for panic, but we must continue to follow public health standards while enjoying the holiday,” he later added.12.24.21. We are seeing an uptick in the positivity rate in the NCR but this may be due to the holidays. We will have more clarity by January 2022.
