The purpose of the webcams is to complement the observational phenology data with year-round, high-resolution, digital color information. Nine gaged watersheds within the HBEF monitor inputs and outputs of water quantity and quality.
The webcams also capture hourly images of nearby Mirror Lake to detect the presence of ice on the lake. These images enable the Forest Service to track ice-free days on a year-to-year basis.
To minimize power consumption at the sites, the CR supplies power to the webcams for 10 minutes per hour during the day, allowing just enough time to collect and store hourly images. Due to delays in reporting, which can take as long as a week, recent data are incomplete. These data show the weekly rates by vaccination status, age and race and ethnicity. Rates can present a more accurate picture than absolute numbers when groups have different population sizes.
For example, the rates below show unvaccinated people are far more likely to test positive for COVID and to be hospitalized and die from disease. Note : There will be a delay in updating the weekly data below due to processing issues. This data may not be updated until January Also, the data on vaccinated people now includes children ages 5 to 11, through December The data for that group is incomplete at this time, but it will be updated soon.
Select data: By vaccination status By age By race and ethnicity. This table shows the totals and average weekly rates of cases, hospitalizations and deaths since January 17, , when the first New Yorkers were fully vaccinated. These data show percent positivity and test rate over the last seven days of data, or hospitalization and death rates over the last 28 days of available data.
To accommodate standard reporting delays, hospitalization and death data are published at a day lag. Select data: Percent positive 7 days Test rate 7 days Hospitalization rate 28 days Death rate 28 days. This data shows percent positivity and test rate for molecular tests such as PCR tests , as well as the number of people tested with all diagnostic tests which include antigen tests.

The Forest Park case should serve as a reminder to hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare professionals that there is risk of criminal and civil exposure whenever healthcare professionals receive compensation for patient referrals. Since most federal healthcare fraud prosecutions have involved Medicare, Medicaid or other federal healthcare programs, many medical providers overlook the risk that federal enforcement agencies will also scrutinize arrangements with purely private payers.
As such, healthcare organizations should review any compensation arrangements that have been specifically designed to carve out federal program business to confirm that they are not prohibited under other state laws which might form the basis for exposure under the Travel Act. Compliance procedures and training materials should also be re-evaluated and updated with information on how to spot problematic arrangements under the Travel Act.

Then, in November , while awaiting judgement in the case, the Victorian government made a forest policy announcement that signalled an end to old growth forest logging in Victoria. Instead, the Department released a field guide to be used by the logging agency VicForests which w ill not ensure our old growth forests are protected, so we are going back to court.
With the unprecedented and devastating summer bushfires it is even more critical than ever that all remaining old growth forests are properly protected. The case seeks to ensure the Environment Department follows the minimum old growth protection laws set out in forest regulations and management plans.
Preparation for the trial was a massive effort. We are now again working around the clock with our legal team at Environmental Justice Australia to prepare the case and defend these ancient forests.
