Doug Burgum Wednesday released the following statement in response to the COVID-19 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/vaccines\/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html\">guidance<\/a> released this week by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention regarding fully vaccinated individuals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActive COVID-19 cases today represent just 3% of North Dakota\u2019s peak case numbers last November. Statewide hospitalizations due to COVID-19 remain below 20 patients, and July deaths due to COVID-19 are on track to be the lowest since the pandemic began. Yet our positive case numbers are trending in the wrong direction, even with limited testing occurring,\u201d Burgum said. \u201cThe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.nd.gov\/news\/nddoh-reminds-public-take-precautions-amid-delta-variant-concerns\">highly contagious Delta variant<\/a> is driving cases up across the United States, and nearly all COVID-related hospitalizations and deaths are among those not vaccinated. Safe, effective vaccines are available to all North Dakotans ages 12 and up and represent the best defense against COVID-19, including the Delta variant. Individuals with questions about the vaccines, which are now protecting nearly 1.5 billion people worldwide, are encouraged to visit with their own doctor or medical provider.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe State of North Dakota will not be recommending any changes for state employees in response to the new CDC guidance at this time,\u201d Burgum continued. \u201cNorth Dakota\u2019s statewide COVID-19 emergency ended April 30. Local entities are best suited to consider CDC guidelines based on local conditions, including case rates, positivity rates and available hospital capacity. North Dakota has relied on personal responsibility throughout the pandemic. Residents are encouraged to educate themselves on the differences of the Delta variant, be aware of the level of spread in their area and utilize well-known COVID-19 etiquette and mitigation measures as appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-230943\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/peopleInMasks-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/peopleInMasks-300x202.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/peopleInMasks-260x175.jpg 260w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/peopleInMasks.jpg 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>SALT LAKE CITY (AP) \u2014 Republicans are responding with hostility to new masking guidance from public health officials. It&#8217;s opening a new front in the cultural war over COVID-19 restrictions just as efforts to try to persuade large swaths of unvaccinated Americans to get the shots appeared to be making headway. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Tuesday recommended that even vaccinated people return to wearing masks indoors if they live in areas with high rates of virus transmission. Republican governors from Texas to South Dakota slammed the advice as wrong-headed. And on Capitol Hill, clashes between members devolved into insults and screaming matches.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-221112\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CVHDshot1-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CVHDshot1-300x202.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CVHDshot1-260x175.jpg 260w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CVHDshot1.jpg 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Jamestown (CVHD)\u00a0 Upcoming COVID-19 Vaccination Clinics Schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thursday, July 29, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Vaccine Type:<\/em><\/strong><em> PFIZER, Moderna or Johnson &amp; Johnson<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Event Time:<\/em><\/strong><em> 9:00am \u2013 12:00pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Event Location:<\/em><\/strong><em> Central Valley Health District<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndvax.org\/appointment\/en\/reg\/0861305392\">\u00a0CLICK HERE TO REGISTER<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Wednesday, August 11, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Vaccine Type:<\/em><\/strong><em> PFIZER<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Event Time:<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a08:00pm \u2013 3:30pm<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Event Location:<\/em><\/strong><em> Jamestown Middle School\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndvax.org\/appointment\/en\/reg\/6150330932\"><strong><em>\u00a0CLICK HERE TO REGISTER\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-230946\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Norway-Inn-Rb-Cutting-300x205.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"205\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Norway-Inn-Rb-Cutting-300x205.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Norway-Inn-Rb-Cutting-768x525.jpg 768w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Norway-Inn-Rb-Cutting-1024x700.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Norway-Inn-Rb-Cutting-256x175.jpg 256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Jamestown\u00a0 (Chamber)\u00a0 Members of the Jamestown Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors held a ribbon cutting ceremony for Norway Inn, LLC.

(AP) \u2014 It was Festivus in Green Bay on Wednesday, and Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers spent much of his nearly 32-minute news conference airing his grievances.<\/p>\n<p>He explained why he stayed away from OTAs and mandatory minicamp. One of those reasons was his desire to serve as a recruiter and evaluator of free agents.<\/p>\n<p>Rodgers also said the team didn\u2019t have any plans for him beyond the upcoming season. He was also displeased by the way the team has allowed several star players to leave the team, some without any contract offer.<\/p>\n<p>Rodgers wasn\u2019t sure he\u2019ll be a Packer beyond this season.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere in the NFL:<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Quarterback Lamar Jackson has tested positive for COVID-19 and missed Baltimore\u2019s first practice of training camp.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was magnitude 8.2 and hit 56 miles east southeast of Perryville, Alaska at about 8:15 p.m. The quake was about 29 miles below the surface of the ocean, according to USGS.

Biden will make the announcement Thursday, according to an individual who is familiar with his plans but who spoke on condition of anonymity to confirm details that haven&#8217;t yet been publicly announced. The president is hoping to use the federal workforce as a model for employers nationwide. Those familiar with details of the plan emphasize that the new guidance is not a vaccine mandate for federal employees, and those who decide not to get vaccinated aren\u2019t at risk of being fired.<\/p>\n<p>TOKYO (AP) \u2014 Japanese officials have sounded the alarm as Tokyo reported record-breaking coronavirus cases for the third straight day with the Olympics well underway. Chief Cabinet Secretary Katunobu Kato told reporters the new cases are soaring not only in the Tokyo area but across the country. He says Japan has never experienced the expansion of the infections of this magnitude. Tokyo reported 3,865 new cases Thursday, up from 3,177 on Wednesday and double the numbers a week ago, Japan has kept its cases and deaths lower than many other countries, but its seven-day rolling average is growing and now stands at 28 per 100,000 people. People are still roaming the streets despite stay-at-home requests, making restrictions ineffective. The Tokyo governor says cases could hit 4,500 a day.<\/p>\n<p>LONDON (AP) \u2014 British-Swedish drugmaker AstraZeneca says it intends to seek U.S. authorization for its COVID-19 vaccine in the second half of this year. The company offered a new timetable for the much-delayed application on Thursday while releasing its second-quarter financial results.

That includes 80 million doses that went to the COVAX initiative for low- and middle-income countries. The U.K., European Union and World Health Organization have already authorized use of the AstraZeneca vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>SAN DIEGO (AP) \u2014 Vice President Kamala Harris says efforts to address root causes of migration from Central America won&#8217;t produce immediate results as she unveils a broad strategy that avoids detailed targets and deadlines. A one-page letter from the vice president and a fact sheet adhere to previous statements that support short-term relief for migration pressures like extreme weather while also committing sustained attention to deeper motivations for people to leave their countries. Harris said Thursday the governments of Mexico, Japan and South Korea have committed to joining the push, along with the United Nations. President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration has struggled for short- and long-term responses.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Senate has voted to start work on a nearly $1 trillion national infrastructure package. The vote came together quickly Wednesday night after President Joe Biden and a bipartisan group of senators reached agreement on the key part of the White House agenda. But it\u2019s unclear if enough senators will eventually support final passage. The process ahead could take days. The outcome will set the stage for the next debate in the months ahead over Biden&#8217;s much more ambitious $3.5 trillion spending package, which includes child care, tax breaks and health care. The $1 trillion package would be partly paid for by repurposing unspent COVID-19 relief aid.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSi Weather&#8230; .REST OF TODAY&#8230;Mostly sunny.
