LET'S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT
WHAT IS HAPPENING STATEWIDE BY
THE NUMBERS.
WE HAVE SEEN SEVERAL SPIKES IN
NEW CASES OVER THE PAST WEEK.
THE STATE IS TESTING MORE THAN
100,000 PEOPLE PER DAY, WHICH
IS PART OF THE REASON WE ARE
SEEING MORE CASES BUT THE RATE
AT WHICH TESTS ARE COMING BACK
POSITIVE IS UP TO 7.5%.
LOT THINGS NOT AFFECTED BY
TESTING, THE NUMBER OF
CORONAVIRUS PATIENTS IN
HOSPITALS AND I SEE.
CALIFORNIA HAS SEEN A RECENT
RISE IN THE NUMBERS BUT
HOSPITALIZATIONS WENT DOWN
SLIGHTLY YESTERDAY AND MORE
GOOD NEWS.
THERE WAS NO INCREASE IN THE
NUMBER OF ICU PATIENTS.

THAT WOULD SUGGEST THAT KIDS
BEING BACK IN SCHOOL IS
DANGEROUS TO THEM.

CDC, FULL-SIZED IN PERSON

FOR COVID-19 SPREAD IF THERE
ARE NO
