Mortgage RatesNote: Mortgage rates are from MortgageNewsDaily.com and are for top tier scenarios.

Due to changes at the CDC, weekly cases are no longer updated.

Hospitalizations have more almost tripled from a low of 5,150 in June 2023.
Hospitalizations are far below the peak of 150,000 in January 2022.
