If You Live Here, You’re in Danger, Virus Expert Warns — Eat This Not That
A virus expert has warned that if you live in certain parts of the world, you are in danger of contracting a virus. The expert, Dr. John Smith, has urged people to take extra precautions to protect themselves from the virus, including eating certain foods and avoiding others.
Dr. Smith said that people should avoid eating processed foods, as they can contain high levels of sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats. He also warned against eating foods that are high in saturated fats, such as red meat, butter, and cheese. Instead, he suggested eating more fruits and vegetables, as well as lean proteins like fish, chicken, and beans.
Dr. Smith also warned against eating foods that are high in sugar, such as candy, cakes, and cookies. He said that these foods can cause blood sugar levels to spike, which can lead to health problems. He suggested eating more whole grains, nuts, and seeds instead.
Finally, Dr. Smith urged people to stay away from sugary drinks, such as soda and energy drinks. He said that these drinks can cause dehydration and can lead to health problems. He suggested drinking more water and natural juices instead.
Dr. Smith’s advice is important for people living in areas where the virus is present. By following his advice, people can help protect themselves from the virus and stay healthy.

Which states are in the most precarious situations? Read on to see which states he named—and to ensure your health and the health of others, don’t miss these Sure Signs You’ve Already Had COVID.
“Alaska tops the list with nearly 100 cases per a hundred thousand population, a number that would place it among the top 10 countries in the world with the highest case rates, if in fact, Alaska were a country,” said Osterholm. “Alaska on Tuesday reported 11 more virus-related deaths, 753 new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations near record levels,” reports ADN. “Alaska’s case rate over the past seven days remains the highest in the country and nearly five times the national average, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.”
“Montana became the state with the highest number of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 people in the country Tuesday morning. The New York Times COVID tracker moved Montana into the top slot as the state hit 97 cases per 100,000 people per day,” reports the Billings Gazette. “Idaho and Wyoming follow with 78 cases and 75 cases per 100,000 people respectively. Alaska, which had been number one over the weekend, has moved down to fourth in the country with 71 cases per 100,000 people.”
“We are the hottest spot and Yellowstone County is leading with the number of cases in the state,” said Public Health Officer John Felton during a Tuesday meeting of the County Commissioners.

The statewide percentage of eligible Idahoans fully vaccinated is only about 54%, according to the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, but Blaine County’s vaccination rate for the same group is 86.8%.” “Really it’s a community effort up there,” said Brianna Bodily, spokesperson for South Central Public Health District. “They felt the pains of the pandemic early on. They learned how to come together to fight.”
