Aug 08, 2020 45 secs

The Los Angeles County Department of Public health announced 2,645 new COVID-19 cases and 51 new deaths on Saturday.

The latest update sees dips in new cases, deaths and current hospitalizations when compared to Friday’s update.

Saturday’s count displayed around 500 fewer new cases and 10 fewer current hospitalizations from the previous day, 31% of which are in the ICU.

While the numbers seem to decline, the latest update comes days after the county hit more than 200,000 confirmed coronavirus cases on Thursday, as Los Angeles hits a total of 206,761 cases as of today.

The county nears 5,000 total deaths, with a current total of 4,967.

Though the issues with the state’s COVID-19 reporting process have led to undercounts in daily new cases data, the technical failure did not impact the total counts for hospitalizations.
