In San Diego County, 405 new COVID-19 cases were reported on the 19th, nearly doubling from what we saw just one day before.
"If you think about two weeks before then, we had already noted that there was an increase in the wastewater, so that was a signal that there was going to be more cases," said Dr. William Tseng, assistant medical director of Kaiser Permanente in San Diego and Kaiser's vaccine lead locally.
Dr. Tseng, says right now in San Diego County hospitalizations are still low. He said there are currently about 91 total COVID-19 positive hospitalizations across all health systems in the county, attributing the lower number to high vaccination rates. The uptick in cases comes as mask requirements have been lifted on local buses, trains, and at the airport. Masks are now optional.
Tseng said people shouldn't let their guards down, thinking that new subvariants aren't as serious as the ones before.
