LA County Health Officials Fact Check Myths About COVID-19
Updated June 17, 2020 2:38 PM
An increase in reported cases isn’t solely due to increased testing — the virus is still continuing to spread. According to Ghaly, "more people are becoming infected and also, at the same time, we are identifying a greater fraction of those who are infected through the county's expansion of testing capacity to understand the actual... effective transmission rate in the county."
This is not an overreaction to a virus that’s basically the flu. COVID-19 is killing far more Americans than the seasonal flu typically does, Ghaly explained. "During mid-April, the counted deaths for COVID-19 in the United States were 15,000 per week," she said. "During a typical peak week of seasonal influenza, the count of deaths are more like 750." Ghaly added that the long-term health effects of COVID-19 are not yet fully understood, but said health officials are learning "that the long-term health consequences on many who survive are significant."
