The nation’s most populous state is averaging close to 1,000 additional cases reported daily, an increase of about 17% in the last 14 days. Officials expected an increase when capacity limits were lifted for businesses and most mask restrictions and social distancing requirements were eliminated for vaccinated people.
In Contra Costa County, where 72% of eligible residents are fully vaccinated, officials recently began publishing virus caseby vaccination status. Since the county has a high inoculation rate, the number of new coronavirus cases is generally low but unvaccinated residents remain at risk, said Dr. Chris Farnitano, the county’s health officer.
In Los Angeles, a mix of masked and unmasked people walked around Echo Park Lake on Wednesday. G. Williams, who waited for a bus nearby, wore a black cloth mask over a blue surgical one — something she expects she’ll do for years to come.The 69-year-old isn’t vaccinated, saying she still has concerns about possible long-term side effects. She supports her county’s latest recommendation and said she doesn’t understand why people wouldn’t wear a mask to protect others.
In Orange County, the variant accounts for 45% of sequenced cases in the most recent week, said Dr. Regina Chinsio-Kwong, the county’s deputy health officer. Contact tracers reaching out to those infected with the virus find 95% are unvaccinated, and the few who are vaccinated report minor symptoms and aren’t hospitalized, she said.

72% FULLY vaccinated in Contra Costa. If that 28% gets covid, to paraphrase Ivan Drago, if they die they die
This pandemic would be over and done with if grown adults would have all taken the vaccine. Its sad to say but if you die due to your refusal to take the vaccine, know that you won't be remembered any more than the rest of us, you will just die sooner.
The CDC stopped counting non-hospitalization and non-death cases for the vaccinated on 1 June. But continued to count them for the unvaccinated. So how exactly do you know that this variant is spreading mostly among the unvaccinated? This is dishonest reporting at the very best.
There comes a time when society is not responsible for your physical health. Here is a vaccine from the current pandemic. Take the vaccine or risk death. Know that I took the vaccine and am done protecting you against yourself.
So, this tells me that they're not wearing masks. Why I continue to wear mine 😷
Get both your shots. 1 shot protects against delta 33% 2 shots protects 88% Get two shots.
So much crap, oooh the “unvaccinated” blablabla . In Israel the vaccinated also get Covid with the new media evil D-variant (they are all vaccinated in Israel). Stop stereotyping people into groups!
Oh well. That's what happens when you join a cult.
