California Covid
The LA Times is reporting:
After months of declining numbers, California has recorded a nearly 30% increase in coronavirus cases over the past week along with smaller rises in hospitalizations, causing some health officials to suspect that the state is headed into a new pandemic wave.
The increase coincides with a loosening of COVID-19 restrictions such as mask mandates and vaccine verification rules, as well as the rise of new subvariants of the highly transmissible Omicron strain. The question now is how much higher cases will go and whether new government intervention will be needed.
Sure, why not? Copy the China model.
The original goal was to "flatten" the curve not go to zero (except in Cuomo's New York state).
I assume The LA Times has more current data or is watching a different database. On the other hand, we are not given a time frame for the more recent data.
