niman Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 By Los Angeles Times Staff Updated Dec. 28, 10:04 p.m. Pacific 2,195,960 confirmed cases +66,811 on Monday 24,545 deaths +257 on Monday To better understand the COVID-19 pandemic, The Times is conducting an independent, continual survey of dozens of local health agencies across the state. What we know The holiday drove down new case counts. Many local health departments closed for Christmas. Tallies over the holiday weekend are not fully representative. Stay-at-home orders have returned. 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 38,130 cases per day, a 16.1% increase from two weeks ago. Roughly 11.3% of tests this past week have come back positive. Deaths are on the rise. The state has averaged 231 daily deaths over the last week, an increase of 41.2% from two weeks ago. Hospitalizations have never been higher. Statewide, there are 19,766 people hospitalized with a confirmed case, 45% more than two weeks ago. Among those patients, 4,228 are in intensive care. Disparities in age and race persist. Roughly 74% of the dead were 65 or older. After adjusting for population, Latinos are now 2.6 times more likely than whites to test positive.

The number of cases in California is now on pace to double every 40.5 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 38,130 new cases and 231 new deaths per day. Experts say the true number of people infected is unknown and likely much higher than official tallies.

On the cases chart, gray bars mark when errors in a state computer system delayed the tabulation of new cases. 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.

The number is adjusted to ensure that some beds remain open for patients who don’t have COVID-19. Three regions currently fail.

The initial shipments are expected to add up to about 1.2 million doses and 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. The state has yet to release figures on how many people have been vaccinated so far. Officials are still drafting a plan on how to roll out the shot 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 338,647 tests have been conducted each day.

California in context To date, the United States has recorded 19,095,967 coronavirus cases and 332,975 deaths. In the last week, the country has averaged 182,614 new cases and 2,208 deaths per day. While California — America’s most populous state — has the nation’s top case counts, it ranks much lower after adjusting for population. Home to 12% of the country's population, thus far it has accounted for roughly 11% of cases.
