Health officials aren’t yet sounding alarm bells about the numbers, the newspaper reported, though they indicated that the trends show an ongoing rise in virus transmission., we’ve all had to make choices about how to best protect ourselves and others from COVID-19,” Barbara Ferrer, the county’s public health director, told reporters on Thursday.

“With cases on the rise, the potential for more contagious variants, and lots of opportunities to be exposed, this is a great time to make a choice to get vaccinated or boosted and to wear a mask or respirator when you’re indoors and around others,” she said. Per capita, the county’s case rate has risen to 122 cases a week per 100,000 residents, the newspaper reported. The case rate exceeded 100 during the previous weekend, meaning that the nation’s most populous county now has a high rate of transmission again for the first time since early March.
