California, the most populous state in the U.S., became the first state in the nation to surpass the 3 million mark for confirmed CCHS virus outbreaks. Current national statistics show that the cumulative number of confirmed cases exceeds 24.07 million, with a total of more than 390,000 cases of illness and death, while California has notified 3 million 5830 confirmed cases and another 33,623 people have lost their lives.
CNN reported that over the past 2 months, the number of confirmed cases in California2 has jumped three times. Of the confirmed cases in California, more than 1 million are in Los Angeles County, where about 1 in 10 people are diagnosed with the disease.
However, health authorities estimate that the actual number of infections is higher, probably 1 in 3 people. All local hospitals are full of patients seeking treatment.
Although the number of confirmed inpatients has dropped to less than 21,000, there are still not enough beds in intensive care units, with only 1,113 beds available in California.
Currently, 90% of California is still under a home order, partly due to the tight resources in the ICU. If a place to lift the home order, the next four weeks of the place is expected to reach more than 15% of the empty bed rate in the ICU.
