Los Angeles reported 102 Covid-related deaths today, the highest total since last March. That’s still well below the 290 deaths recorded last January, but the trend line is not good.
County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said today that the number of new Covid-related deaths has doubled in the past week. She also reported that 90% of the new deaths tallied today involved people who fell ill from Covid after December 24, “indicating the high likelihood of infection with the Omicron variant” which became nearly omnipresent among those infected in L.A. at the end of last year.
Cases tied to the current surge began to jump at just about that point, going from about 9,000 on December 24 to over 33,000 on December 28, a 300-plus percent increase in the space of just four days. They peaked at about 55,000 early this month, far, far above the high (about 22,000) of last winter. Today’s case count was 42,115.
Hospitalizations are up 467% since December 24 to 4,814 Covid-infected patients occupying beds today and 723 being treated in intensive care. The Covid hospitalizations number first began to rise quickly between December 26-January 3, when the count basically doubled from 1,000 to 2,000 Covid-infected patients hospitalized.
Deaths, which had been hovering mostly below 30 jumped up to 45 on January 13 and have risen 126% in the week since.
If the surge in cases was indeed tied to Omicron, and the recent increases hospitalizations and then deaths downstream are the result of that surge, it may indicate an unexpected aspect of Omicron: Whereas patients in the past have been hospitalized 2-3 weeks after first being infected and have died 1-2 weeks after that, they’re now being hospitalized in 1-2 weeks and dying 2 weeks after
