The number of COVID-19 patients hospitalized in the county as of Wednesday was 1,886, according to state figures released Thursday.

County tallied 1,988 COVID-19 hospitalizations — the first time the number dipped below 2,000 since Nov.

Since last week, countywide COVID-19 hospitalizations have fallen by 29%, while new daily identified coronavirus cases have dropped by 16%, according to a Times analysis.

Even as the daily toll of COVID-19 deaths declines, Latino residents of Los Angeles County are still dying at three times the rate of white residents, according to data released Wednesday.

County is averaging about 120 COVID-19 deaths a day over the past seven days, half the rate of the peak of 241 deaths a day recorded in early January, according to a Times analysis.
