The Public Health Department warned of a possible COVID-19 case surge and the importance of vaccinations to curb the threat on Tuesday, during a county commissioners meeting.
Public Health Director Ed Hill said the County has recorded two more cases of the COVID-19 Delta variant since it first surfaced in the area two weeks ago, bringing the total to five cases. Hill also said the caseload jumped by 70 in the last week.
The Delta variant is now considered the dominant variant in California, Hill said, and poses a particular danger to the unvaccinated. Along with the spread of Delta, California has started seeing increased COVID-19 cases, with LA county seeing 3,000 new positive cases in three days, according to the Los Angeles Times.
