Dr. Asfour explains, "Some hospitals in California have again curtailed visitation due to a 76% surge in infections and a 49% sager in hospitalizations in the past 14 days, prompting UCLA to reinforce an indoor mask policy for all students, faculty, staff and visitors. The San Francisco Bay Area seems to be a hotspot currently. Three Bay Area counties have more than 200,000 cases: Santa Clara, Alameda and Contra Costa.

But unlike in previous waves, most local and state governments are steering clear of introducing new regulations to stem the spread of the virus, sticking instead to recommendations for people to mask up and get vaccinated."
