    Question

    Nationwide, new COVID-19 hospitalizations have begun increasing following the decline of the Omicron BA.1 wave.

    As of April 27th, the 7-day moving average of confirmed COVID-19 hospitalizations in Virginia is 181.

    Will the 7-day moving average of current confirmed COVID-19 hospitalizations in Virginia cross 2,000 before July 22, 2022?

    This question will resolve as "Yes" if the 7-Day Moving Average of Confirmed COVID-19 Hospitalizations is equal to or greater than 2000 at any time between April 29, 2022 to July 22, 2022 (inclusive). The "Hospitalization Trends" tab on the Virginia Hospital COVID-19 Dashboard will be used as the definitive source.
