Placer County Public Health reported more than a doubling in hospitalizations due to COVID-19 in the first few weeks in July, accompanied by a similar doubling in the county's case rate.
The Delta variant is easier to catch than earlier strains of COVID, yet vaccines are highly effective at preventing severe illness, hospitalization and death.
For those who have not yet been vaccinated, see where the vaccine is offered near you.
