Even as California’s COVID-19 death toll climbed over 14,000 and its case count crossed 750,000, counties around the state continued to report fewer of each by the passing week.

With 3,569 new cases and 99 new fatalities from the virus Thursday, according to data compiled by this news organization, California crossed two milestones in one day. And yet the seven-day average for each continued to fall, with the 3,600 average daily cases over the past week the fewest since June 20 and the 85 average daily deaths the fewest since July 9.
