The top public health official in Los Angeles County blamed massive protests for a spike in coronavirus cases.
Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer told the Los Angeles Times it was "highly likely" that the demonstrations, meant to protest against police brutality and racial injustice, contributed to the significant spike in COVID-19 cases in the city.
“The virus is not done with us,” Ferrer said.
More than 2,000 new cases of COVID-19 were recorded in Los Angeles County each day for the past three days. In the past two weeks, there were 46,735 new cases of coronavirus infection in the entire state of California, accounting for more than one-third of the state's cases since the pandemic began. The positive test rate climbed statewide, with a jump from 5.8% to 8.4% in Los Angeles County. By comparison, the rate in New York, which was the hardest-hit state in the country, has fallen below 1%.

An honest official in a Democrat city....
Who knew ???
She’s obviously a racist./sarc
He's probably asking for ice water about now.
This is bull shi!. Result is more testing is going on and those who were exposed are not sick from the virus. Testing doesn’t mean a damn but hospital attendance from the virus tells us something.
Excellent graph. With this information at hand, TMC will certainly do the necessary planning.
She looks like Keith Richards’ mom.
I guess Commie Noose Network never got the memo:

they are supposedly the largest medical complex in the world
Thank you for sharing these! That looks quite concerning, particularly the small number of ICU beds remaining alongside the surge in usage.
I wonder if they have enough data on who’s going to worsen to transfer future ICU-bound patients to other hospitals with more spare capacity.

test TATs are still variable. Depends on the lab, their capacity, the demand, etc..
My lab (Tx med center) is getting ~70% of tests reported out in ~24 hours, ~92% of tests out in less than 48 hrs and >98% in under 4 days.
But there are some that have to be re-run due to either too low of a human signal (which can signal a poor sample collection, mishandled sample, etc...), or if only one of the two viral genes being tested for is found (could be false positive, or could be true positive but on the limit of detection of the assay)
Samples falling into those situations are re-run a second time to make sure before being reported out.
We’ve also seen our demand as well as positive rate shoot up this past week.
As an anecdote, we were averaging a 4-5% positive rate for April and May. Our positive rate is relatively low because we process about half congregate site blanket testing and half drive-up sites. Of the ~600 tests we’ve processed so far today (again about half and half from congregate sites and drive up), our positive percentage on the day is ~19%
Our Lady of Constant Lockdowns
Call me cynical, but perhaps they encouraged the riots SO they could have a spike SO they could keep things locked down even longer.

That's not cynicism, that's realism.
