The county has been closely monitoring hospital figures as it weighs whether to re-impose a universal indoor mask-wearing mandate.
The 3,080 new infections reported Wednesday gave the county a cumulative total from throughout the pandemic of 3,609,228. Official case numbers released by the county are known to be undercounts of actual virus activity, since many people rely on at-home tests or don’t test at all.The seven-day average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 11.4% as of Wednesday, up from 10.4% a week ago.
County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer has said previously the county would reinstitute a mask-wearing mandate if the county remains in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s “high” virus-activity category and meets two hospital thresholds:— if the percent of staffed hospital beds occupied by COVID patients tops 10%.
The county’s daily hospital admission rate was 14 per 100,000 as of last Thursday, while the percent of staffed hospital beds occupied by COVID patients was 7.2%.
