• More than 12,977,000 individuals tested; 25% of people tested positive to date

Data is by date reported by DPH, but does not necessarily represent the date of testing, hospitalization, or death.

* Number reflects an undercount due to a lag from weekend or holiday reporting.

** Friday case and death counts include a week’s worth of cases/deaths reported by Long Beach and are therefore artificially high.

***Hospital numbers are currently unavailable due to the delay in weekend reporting from the State

^ Data for past dates is subject to change in future reports
