SAN DIEGO - A summer surge of COVID-19 infections has hit California, and San Diego is feeling the impact.'We're seeing a lot of cases here in the ER,' says Dr. Andrew Eads from Sharp Memorial Hospital . 'Not a a shift goes by that I'm not diagnosing somebody with COVID. 'Right now, the CDC has California as one of just 8 states with 'Very High' levels of viral activity in its wastewater.
'Beacuse of that, Dr. Eads says people need to pay more attention to how they feel, especially if they're in a high risk category.'I think that if you're somebody who's at risk for complications from COVID, like if you have diabetes, obesity, heart disease, other things that would put you at risk, then maybe think twice about going to large gatherings or places where you would potentially be in contact with people who would have the disease' says Dr. Eads.
