The Golden State is catching up to COVID hotspots in other parts of the country that had already toppled last winter’s peak for new infections. The 7-day average of new daily cases in the U.S. as a whole surpassed 400,000 this week for the first time. The previous record was 251,000 just under a year ago.
The unprecedented surge in cases has also fueled a sharp rise in hospitalizations.
