COVID-19 cases continue to rise in LA County, highest numbers seen since February

COVID-19 cases continue to rise in LA County, highest numbers seen since February By Alexi Chidbachian COVID continues relentless spread In LA County A relentless surge of COVID-19 cases continued Thursday in Los Angeles County as another 2,700 cases were reported, with the percentage of infections occurring among fully vaccinated residents steadily rising. LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles County Health Department reported 2,767 new COVID-19 cases Thursday, up 80% from last week and the highest number since February. They also reported an additional 13 deaths.  Case rates haven’t been this high since February. Health officials blame the highly infectious Delta variant for the recent surge in COVID-19 as well as the number of unvaccinated people.

- ADVERTISEMENT - In fact, during the month of June, 20% of all newly reported COVID infections in the county occurred among people who had been fully vaccinated. That was up from 11% in May and 5% in April. But Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said the increase is normal given the continued rise in the number of people who are getting fully vaccinated. She also stressed that fully vaccinated people who become infected generally have extremely mild cases a benefit the vaccines have always promised. “Very few of them ended up hospitalized, and even smaller numbers ended up passing away,” Ferrer said. “So yes, if you are fully vaccinated you have a lot of protection, which is what the vaccines have always been best at protecting people from serious illness and death. And these vaccines, even with the ‘delta’ variant, are holding up really well.”

She said the fact that people who are fully vaccinated are still getting infected should not be viewed as the shots being ineffective, and should not be used as an excuse for people to avoid getting the shots. “While seat belts don t prevent every bad thing that can happen during a car accident, they do provide excellent protection, so much so that we all use them routinely,” she said. “It wouldn t really make sense to not use a seat belt just because it doesn t prevent all injuries from car accidents. Rejecting a COVID vaccine because they don t offer 100% protection really ignores the powerful benefits we ve experienced from those people who have gotten vaccinated.”
