A COVID wave is washing over California, with the state seeing continued increases in the number of newly confirmed cases and hospitalizations as some officials urged the public to take greater precautions.
The extent of the recent increases has prompted some county-level health officials to recommend that residents once again consider wearing masks in indoor public settings, at least until transmission has declined.
California currently has "high" coronavirus levels in sewage, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And increases are being seen across the Golden State, from Los Angeles County to the San Francisco Bay Area to areas around the state capital.
The CDC estimates that coronavirus infections are either "growing" or "likely growing" in 30 states, including California. Twenty-one states have either “very high” or "high" viral levels in wastewater. Of all regions of the U.S., the West has the highest levels of coronavirus in wastewater, followed by the South
"California is experiencing a summer COVID wave," said Dr. Aimee Sisson, the health officer in Yolo County, just west of Sacramento.
The rate at which coronavirus lab tests are coming back positive also continues to climb. For the week that ended Aug. 23, 12.07% of tests across the state came back positive, up from a rate of 6.03% for the week that ended July 26.
Similar leaps in rates were seen in L.A. County, where the positive test rate was 13.44%, up from 8.11% four weeks earlier; in Orange County, it was 18.1%, up from 9.4%; and in San Francisco, it was 8.7%, up from 7.1%.
Dr. Elizabeth Hudson, the regional chief of infectious diseases at Kaiser Permanente Southern California, said she received many calls related to outpatient cases of COVID-19 while on call over the Labor Day weekend.

Anybody now wearing a mask on the advice of these idiots is just a fool...
They are likely still using a PCR test which is unrepeatable, and therefore unscientific. But it makes great propaganda. And it seems that as soon as a vaccine is made to conform to the CoVID variant, another variant appears on the horizon.
More ridiculous DIY COVID masks.

If you refuse, you obviously don’t care about your fellow humans (can’t say “man” anymore).
Trump is back in office so the Left needs to ramp up the pandemic shit again.

COVID wave washes over California. Some officials urge residents to mask up
As a side note to this thread, please consider the following.
Given large number of CV19 test results that were rejected for false positives a few years back, did CV19 alarmists ever publicly announce that defective tests were fixed?
FR: "false positive covid"
Leftist “progressives” love submitting to an all-powerful tyrannical government, just so long as that government is run by fellow Leftists. The Covid panic was their shining moment, the embodiment of everything they believe in. They will NEVER give up all the trappings of that dark episode in our history.
Being perpetually masked and bragging about how many times they’ve been jabbed is their way of seeking acceptance from the mindless collective. It’s their “brand.”
worked so well the first time, the MSM is ramping it up again.
Fool me once...shame on you. Fool me twice....shame on me.
So a few people have the sniffles?
How about placing your mask-wearing face next to my crack after I throw down a Taco Bell Chupacabra Grande and tell me you don’t smell something foul?
Honestly it was not as bad as a cold or MILD flu!!!
This business of masking up, and vaccines is obscene!!!!
I hope that there will be lawsuits galore over this!!!!!!!!
Fool me once, shame on you...
So serious you need to be tested to know you have it.
Every one of those is hilarious. 😂😂🤣
