The number of COVID-19-positive patients in county hospitals, which fell below the 700 mark on Thursday.
Both monkeypox and COVID-19 cases continue declining across Los Angeles County, health officials said during a Thursday afternoon, Sept. 15, briefing, continuing the trend of positive virus news that has relaxed indoor masking rules on the horizon.
The official number of new cases reported each day is believed to be an undercount of actual infections in the county, because of wide usage of at-home tests, the results of which are not generally reported to the county. But perhaps the most important metric, at least in terms of health recommendations, is the weekly case rate.
Monkeypox cases, meanwhile, also dipped recently, hitting 146 weekly cases as of Sept. 3 after peaking at 282 cases in the week ending Aug. 20, health officials said.
