COVID-19 Cases at Lowest Point Since March 2020

There were about 25 COVID-19 cases reported each day on average in the past week, among the lowest levels since the onset of the pandemic.

That’s down drastically from the peak of about 3,500 average cases seen in January.


The last time case counts were this low was during the third week of March 2020 when the virus first starting ramping up in Orange County, shortly after the shelter-in-place mandate.


There are about 50 current hospitalized patients and 7 in the ICU, down from the peak of 2,259 and 550 in January.
