Should hospitalization rates continue to rise this month, the county could be on track for a renewed universal mask order in indoor public settings. But that’s not assured.The second factor focuses on the share of staffed hospital beds occupied by coronavirus-positive patients. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 6.9% of L.A. County’s staffed hospital beds are being used by coronavirus-infected patients, up from 5.6% from the prior week.
County was recording 3,780 cases a day — or 262 cases a week — for every 100,000 residents, for the week that ended Thursday. The latest tally is a bit lower than the rate for the weekly period that ended Wednesday. But it also represents a 40% week-over-week increase, which is concerning though gentler than the 81% jump seen over the weekend. A rate of 100 cases a week for every 100,000 residents is considered high.
