California COVID-19 hospitalizations rise, new L.A. County cases double amid Omicron spread

LA Times  

COVID-19 hospitalizations are on the rise in California as the Omicron variant spreads, combining with a holiday wave of the Delta strain to spark concerns of yet another surge that could strain the state’s healthcare system. In Orange County, the variant was found to have infected a fully vaccinated man who had recently traveled domestically outside California and experienced mild illness, public health authorities said. “The Omicron variant is highly transmissible and has already been identified in the United States and many countries around the world,” Dr. Matthew Zahn, the deputy county health officer, said in a statement. “We had anticipated that Omicron would arrive here in Orange County.” In Riverside County, the variant infected a 41-year-old fully vaccinated man from the western portion of the county who was tested in L.A. County on Dec. 8, public health officials said. New York public health officials on Friday reported the state’s highest single-day total of new coronavirus cases since the pandemic began.
