Data released in the January 13 COVID-19 zip code report
In the video below, statistics based on omicron cases in California in December 2021 are compared to the 2018-2019 influenza season in that state.
The zip code areas of Belgrade, Brooten and Elrosa have posted the number 18 for new COVID-19 cases in the past week.
The report showed a strange phenomenon where the numbers climbed by a large proportion in the Belgrade 56312 zip code while falling by half in the Brooten 56316 zip code. For the second straight week, the village of Elrosa posted a one.
Here's the breakdown:
Belgrade 56312: 15 new cases (4 last week)
Brooten 56316: 2 new cases (4 last week)
Elrosa 56325: 1 new case (1 new last week)
In the Brooten zip code, which has about 1,500 people, the last four weeks have shown just 15 new COVID-19 cases dating back to the December 23 report: two in today's report, four in the January 6 report, one in the December 30 report and eight in the December 23 report. The fall Delta wave crashed before Christmas, and the omicron surge has shown no signs of appearing...yet.

Fascinating to see the COVID-19 "spread" is almost identical between the Alexandria and Willmar zip codes. Both zip code areas have about 23,000 people, but the Willmar elementary schools don't force masks on their children.
