By City News Service | news@socalnews.com |
PUBLISHED: August 29, 2022 at 9:57 a.m. | UPDATED: August 29, 2022 at 1:54 p.m.

Los Angeles County reported another 6,467 new COVID-19 infections from the
three-day period ending on Monday, Aug. 29, while also confirming 30 more
virus-related deaths.

According to the county Department of Public Health, another 3,192 infections
were recorded Saturday, 1,938 on Sunday and 1,337 on Monday. The Sunday and
Monday numbers are traditionally low due to delays in reporting from the
weekend.

The new cases gave the county a cumulative total from throughout the pandemic of
3,403,028. Actual case numbers are believed to be higher, since many people now
take at-home tests without reporting the results to the county.

The 30 new deaths from the three-day period increased the county’s overall
virus-related death toll to 33,124.



The county does not report COVID data on weekends.

There was no immediate update available from the state on the number of
COVID-positive patients in county hospitals. On Saturday, the number increased
to 889, with 102 of them in intensive care. The county has seen dramatic swings
in hospital numbers in recent days, following a weeks-long downward trend.

County Public Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis told reporters last week there has
been an uptick over the past week in the rate of people being admitted to
hospital for COVID-related reasons. In fact, as of last Thursday, the seven-day
average admission rate rose to 9.6 per 100,000 residents, up from 8.9 the
previous week. If that rate rises above 10 per 100,000 residents by Thursday,
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will again move the county
back into the “high” virus activity category.

Davis said health officials were monitoring the situation, but he said the
continued decline in daily infection numbers will hopefully lead to another drop
in hospitalizations.

The average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 7.6% as of
Monday, down from 8.2% on Friday, according to the county.



Health officials have said roughly 43% of COVID-positive hospital 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.

Last week the county expanded the availability of the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine
to everyone aged 12 and over, the public health officer said.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved an emergency use authorization
this month for the vaccine in people aged 12-17, and the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention signed off this week. The vaccine had previously
been restricted to people aged 18 and over.

Health officials have expressed hope that the Novavax vaccine would be more
widely accepted by vaccine-hesitant residents, since it is based on more
traditional protein-based technology used in other medications for decades —
rather than the mRNA process employed by the Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots.

Novavax is also a two-shot regimen, with the doses administered three to eight
weeks apart. Booster shots are not currently recommended for those who receive
the Novavax vaccine.
