The possible return of an indoor mask mandate in Los Angeles County due to rising COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations continues to loom as more than 10,000 new cases were reported over just a three-day period.
Los Angeles County reported more than 10,000 new COVID-19 infections from a three-day period ending Monday, continuing an upward trend in cases that has also pushed up virus-related hospitalizations.
The 10,089 new cases from the three-day period lifted the cumulative total from throughout the pandemic to 3,562,059. The county also reported 29 more COVID-related deaths from the three-day period, giving the county an overall death toll of 34,241. The seven-day average rate of people testing positive for the virus in the county was 12.5% as of Monday.
The current surge is being blamed largely on a pair of new variants of the virus, known as BQ.1 and BQ.1.1. Both are offshoots of the BA.5 variant that was blamed for rises in infection numbers earlier this year.
