Public health officials stressed the importance of remaining vigilant over the Memorial Day weekend.
COVID-19 case counts continue to drop in Los Angeles County, but as fewer than 50% of residents are fully vaccinated, officials stressed the importance of remaining vigilant over the Memorial Day weekend.
Officials with the county Department of Public Health cautioned that the figures released Sunday were likely an undercount because of delays in reporting over the weekend.About 250 people in the county were hospitalized with COVID-19 on Sunday; during the surge in early January, 8,098 people were hospitalized. More than 24,000 people in the county have died of COVID-19.
“The best way to prepare for a safe holiday, either Memorial Day or July 4, is to be vaccinated,” Barbara Ferrer, Los Angeles County’s public health director, said last week.
