What we know Stay-at-home orders remain. Most of the state, including Los Angeles County, is currently under stricter rules. New cases have been surging. Over the last seven days, the state has averaged 42,189 cases per day, a significant jump from before the holidays. Roughly 14% of tests this past week have come back positive. Deaths are on the rise. The state has averaged 410.7 daily deaths over the last week, an increase of 85.7% from two weeks ago. Hospitalizations have never been higher. Statewide, there are 21,855 people hospitalized with a confirmed case, 15% more than two weeks ago. Check the status of facilities with The Times' new hospital tracker. Disparities in age and race persist. Roughly 75% of the dead were 65 or older. After adjusting for population, Latinos are now 2.6 times more likely than whites to test positive.

So far, 1 out of every 15 people in the state has tested positive. The number statewide is now on pace to double every 38 days, a number used to measure how quickly the virus is spreading.

For instance, some agencies do not report new totals on holidays and weekends, leading to lower numbers on those days. Over the past week, the state has averaged 42,189 new cases and 410.7 new deaths per day. Experts say the true number of people infected is unknown and likely much higher than official tallies.

Where new cases are concentrated State officials study the latest data and then rate regions and counties to determine when and how businesses reopen. The government doesn‘t release enough data to replicate its analysis, but the rate of new cases per 100,000 residents over the last seven days provides insight into where the virus is spreading.

Vaccines About 2.06 million doses of coronavirus vaccine have been shipped to California counties and healthcare systems. To date, a total of 652,128 shots of the two-dose vaccine have been administered. The state public health department has not released the total number of people vaccinated. The first inoculations are being administered to healthcare workers who face the greatest exposure to the virus and residents of long-term care facilities, such as nursing homes. Officials are still drafting a plan on how to roll out the vaccine beyond the initial group. It is unclear when essential workers and other Californians will have access. Phase 1 Healthcare workers and long-term care residents Doctors and nurses on the front lines are now receiving shots. Other healthcare workers and nursing homes come next in this step. Phase 2 Essential workers Emergency personnel, teachers and farmworkers are expected to be next in line. There is no start date. Who else will qualify is undecided. Phase 3 Everyone else It’s unclear how long the rest of California’s nearly 40 million residents may wait. Experts say shots may be readily available by late spring or summer. Testing After a fitful start, California has increased coronavirus testing in the state. Over the last week, an average of 281,288 tests have been conducted each day.

State and county totals come from an ongoing Times survey of California’s 58 county health agencies as well as the three run by cities. Those figures are ahead of the totals periodically released by the state’s Department of Public Health. State officials acknowledge that their tallies lag behind the updates posted by local agencies throughout the day and do not dispute The Times’ method. Data on hospitalizations, tests, demographics and reopening plans come from the state health department. Nursing home totals include skilled-nursing facilities tracked by the state public health department, as well as assisted-living facilities monitored by the California Department of Social Services. Data from other states, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico are collected by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering. Counties are organized into regions using the groupings developed by the state health department. The Times database is available to the public on Github, a popular website for hosting data and computer code. The files will be updated daily at github.com/datadesk/california-coronavirus-data. The data collection effort is done in partnership with journalists at the San Francisco Chronicle, the San Diego Union-Tribune, KQED, KPCC, CapRadio, Calmatters and Stanford’s Big Local News.
