COVID-19 has surged in Ventura County. Now, the ICUs and ERs are full

LA Times  

Hospital beds across Ventura County are filling up because of COVID-19 cases. During a Wednesday media briefing, Ventura County Executive Officer Michael Powers said that when he asked hospital staffers whether their facilities were filling up, they said they were already full. There are 79 people hospitalized for acute COVID-19 care in the county, Ventura County Public Health Director Rigoberto Vargas said. “We’re extremely full right now,” said John Fankhauser, chief executive of Ventura County Medical Center and Santa Paula Hospital. Over the last three weeks, the average of COVID-19 tests administered weekly has jumped from 5,000 to 12,000, said Barry Zimmerman, chief deputy director of the Ventura County Health Care Agency.
