Second straight week of zeroes across the board

The June 3 report by the Minnesota Department of Health showed, for the second week in a row, no case increases for COVID-19 in the zip code areas of Brooten, Belgrade and Elrosa. This is awesome!

And the irony: tonight I was on the International Falls Journal newspaper website reading about how that 110-year old newspaper will cease to exist this month. What advertisement was on the webpage? It was an advertisement from South Dakota encouraging people to move there and start businesses there.

Let that sink in.

Also...Melrose reported no new cases in the last week! That includes rural and city residents of the zip code of 56352. Another large zip code area with no new cases in the last week was Benson 56215. Also great news! Pennock and Sunburg also had no new cases in the last week.
