Health officials say positive COVID-19 cases in Los Angeles County have increased nearly 10 times in one month.
An average of more than 750,000 new Covid-19 infections were reported every day over the past week, according to Johns Hopkins University data.
On Monday, county Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer recognized the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, and the continuing disparity in virus infections and death among communities of color. "While these conditions predate the pandemic, without deliberate collective actions to address the root causes of health inequities, we are unlikely to close the gaps we have documented for two long years.''
