California's rate of daily coronavirus infections underscores the extent to which the pandemic has roared back to life as the ultra-transmissible Delta variant storms across the state.
California has now reported 4 million coronavirus infections, Times data show — a milestone that underscores the extent to which the pandemic has roared back to life as the ultra-transmissible Delta variant continues to storm across the state.
But the coronavirus has since rebounded with ferocity, and California is seeing a level of daily infection higher than at any point during last summer’s surge. Over the seven-day period ending Thursday, California reported an average of 10,325 new coronavirus cases a day,compiled by The Times. The last time that average was above 10,000 was in mid-February.
Both the 2020 and 2021 summer surges pale in comparison to the fury of the fall-and-winter spike. At its height, the state was reporting an average of more than 40,000 daily cases, nearly 22,000 COVID-19 patients were hospitalized at times, and daily death tolls were regularly in the hundreds.
