Where We’re At: Oct. 26
Note: Weekly case updates are each Tuesday. Vaccine data is updated weekly or whenever new results are available
Anaheim, Orange County and all of California are seeing continued recovery from the delta variant surge that began in late June.
For the seven days ending on Oct. 26, Anaheim saw slightly higher new cases compared to a week earlier. We've seen a decline in new cases in six out of the past nine weeks, with some of the lowest levels since mid-July.
While new cases are generally declining, they remain driven by those who are unvaccinated with fewer and less severe cases and less spread among those who are vaccinated.
Vaccines remain our best tool to move beyond coronavirus, just as widespread vaccination has helped us move past polio, measles and many other preventable diseases.
It is a reminder to those who are eligible and without overriding health concerns to get vaccinated or get a booster, as they become available and you're eligible.
Shots are free and widely available at city and county sites, pharmacies, retailers and doctor's offices.
