As of the week before Thanksgiving, just 1 in 10 Californians have received an updated COVID vaccine
Briefly

Dr. John Swartzberg, a clinical professor at UC Berkeley, emphasized the current positive outlook on COVID-19 indicators, stating, 'We’re in a very, very good place at this moment.' His observations reflect significant declines in COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths this Thanksgiving, a stark contrast to previous years when the virus posed a heightened risk.
California's public health officials reported that while COVID-19 cases are low, other respiratory infections like RSV and influenza are increasing. The recent data showing that COVID test positivity rates remain low, with hospitalizations and deaths similarly diminished, suggests a successful immunization campaign following the late summer wave, according to Swartzberg.
