Thanksgiving is upon us, which means the holiday season is in full swing in Los Angeles County.
The county has a weekly average of new cases per day, the largest in the United States, its highest yet, at 16,193.
I.e. Nov. 12 times the weekly average of 1, which was 1,347.
Despite being flooded with coronavirus in hospitals in the state and especially around Los Angeles County, some angelinos sought to celebrate the New Year at secret parties. Police dispersed more than a thousand people who had attended a warehouse party, according to a Los Angeles Times report.
More than 21,000 people were hospitalized on New Year’s Day in California, up from 26 percent two weeks earlier, according to the New York Times database.
As of this week, many intensive care units in the Southern California and San Joaquin Valley regions are close to or close to capacity. At a Los Angeles hospital late last month, incoming patients waited outside in a tent – the lobby was used to treat patients, and Girney was placed in a gift shop.
The government’s Gavin News said Monday that the state of the virus in California has made it “self-evident” that a stay-at-home order would remain in place for the state’s southern and central regions, which were due to expire.
“Unfortunately, it will only get worse before their health improves,” he said, adding that care for non-covid patients in the emergency room is being slowed as intensive care units struggle to manage the invasion brought on by the coronavirus case wave.
