This month, Los Angeles and San Diego both surpassed the nine-county Bay Area.
After four months of having to claim the highest COVID rates in California, the Bay Area has dropped back to its familiar position through most of the pandemic — among the state’s lowest infection rates.
From late February to early July, the Bay Area was reporting a higher case rate than the state, at times more than 50% higher. At one point, the region’s rate was among the highest in the country. But what really matters these days, experts say, is the dramatically better outcomes for people who test positive for COVID, thanks to vaccines and anti-viral therapeutics and new variants that cause less severe illness.
