From Becker's:
COVID-19 activity is rising in many areas of the country ahead of the Fourth of July holiday, hinting at the start of a summer surge, the CDC said in a June 28 update.
For the week ending June 22, COVID-related emergency department visits rose 23% from the previous week. Hawaii and Florida had the highest percentage of ED visits diagnosed as COVID-19 at 5.1% and 1.8%, respectively. Hospitalizations appear to be increasing slightly, though the trends are based on a subset of hospitals that continue to report data to the agency. Requirements for hospitals to report COVID-19 and flu admissions data ended May 1.
