Los Angeles County released a statement on behalf of LA County’s USC Medical Center on state of current COVID-19 hospitalizations, confirming only three patients have been hospitalized for the coronavirus.
"Rising rates of infection are extremely concerning, as the more people who become infected, the greater the probability that ICU admissions for COVID-19 will rise in the future," the county continued."As a safety precaution for our staff and our other patients, all admissions to the hospital are tested for COVID, irrespective of the reason for admission. In the course of this testing, we are seeing a steady number of patients return a positive result," the county added.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 25: A sign displays the types of COVID-19 vaccination doses available at a Walgreens mobile bus clinic on June 25, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. The statement also addressed a controversial video circulating online that shared much of the same information from a virtual town hall on July 14, without additional context. The video is being politicized to suggest the pandemic is no longer serious.
The county concluded residents should use"vigilance and common-sense precautions" when traveling, working, or interacting with others as"the pandemic is still ongoing and unpredictable."
