By City News Service | news@socalnews.com |
PUBLISHED: August 24, 2022 at 5:21 p.m. | UPDATED: August 24, 2022 at 5:22 p.m.

Another 19 COVID-19-related fatalities were reported in Los Angeles County on
Wednesday, Aug. 24, while the number of virus-positive patients in local
hospitals ticked up slightly.

The 19 new deaths lifted the county’s virus-related death toll to 33,060.

Another 3,860 new COVID-19 infections were also reported by the county, raising
its cumulative total from throughout the pandemic to 3,390,012.

The county-reported case figures are believed to under-count the actual number
of infections, since many people now rely on at-home tests, the results of which
are often not relayed to county health officials.



According to state figures, there were 924 virus-positive patients in county
hospitals as of Wednesday, up slightly from 915 on Tuesday. Of those patients,
104 were being treated in intensive care units, the same number as Tuesday.

Hospitalization numbers have been steadily dropping since late July, when the
number of virus-positive patients topped 1,300 during a surge fueled by the
Omicron variant of the virus.

County officials have said that roughly 43% of the COVID-positive patients were
actually admitted for virus-related illness, while the others were admitted for
other reasons, with some only learning they were infected when they were tested
at the hospital.

The average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 9.5% as of
Wednesday, roughly the same as the previous day.

COVID case numbers and hospitalizations have been falling for weeks, as have the
number of outbreaks in Southland workplaces. As of Monday, there were 61 active
worksite outbreaks in the county, down from 93 a month ago, according to the
county Department of Public Health.



Health officials noted that employers are still required to report outbreaks,
defined as three or more lab-confirmed cases within a 14-day period. Employers
are also still required to make medical-grade masks available to employees who
wish to wear them.

“It is encouraging to see L.A. County reporting a steady decline in cases,
hospitalizations, and deaths,” county Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said
in a statement Tuesday. “To continue this trend in the fall, we must continue to
take steps to protect our communities and workplaces. We know what works —
masking, testing, and vaccination, along with other effective safety measures
during infections and outbreaks. If all our employers, workers, and customers
follow safety protocols, we can limit the number of outbreaks at our job sites
and continue to reduce COVID transmission.”
