OC’s Case Counts on Steep Decline

The Orange County Health Care Agency reported Wednesday two new daily cases following a steep downward trend from the January peak. That’s on par with numbers not seen since last May.

The agency also reported 299 hospitalizations, including 63 ICU patients, which is 75% lower than reports from one month ago.

According to OCHCA data, there have been a total of 537,198 cases of COVID-19 and its variants in Orange County; 512,687 of those cases – or 95% – have recovered.

The city with the highest number of cumulative cases is Anaheim, with 78,322 to-date. Trailing closely behind is Santa Ana, with 76,389 cases. Irvine has the third-highest total case count thus far, with 35,032 cases.
