Surge in COVID-19 Hospitalizations Signals Summer Wave
TL;DR Summary
COVID-19 hospitalizations in the United States have seen a 10% spike, the largest increase since December 2022, with over 7,100 patients hospitalized in the week of July 15. Emergency room visits with COVID-19 have also increased. The rise in cases is attributed to a mix of descendants from the XBB variant, rather than a single super transmissible variant. While hospitalizations are still below last year's levels, the increase in infections is concerning as the main period of COVID-19 activity is expected to occur in late fall and early winter.
