Hospitalizations, a more reliable metric, continue to increase across the country. There are more than 131,000 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, an increase of ten percent from the same period 14 days ago. ICU's in several hospital systems are overwhelmed, most notably in Southern California. Los Angeles County has told EMTs not to bring people who have little chance of survival into hospitals and to conserve oxygen out in the field. - The U.S. has now recorded nearly 360,000 deaths. Daily deaths remain high, with the seven-day rolling average hovering around 2,700. This is expected to increase as hospitals run out of beds and oxygen becomes scarce. - As of this week, over 15,000,000 doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines have been provided to the U.S., while over 4,800,000 doses have been administered in the U.S. Moderna expects to produce up to a billion doses in 2021. Both companies are expected to reach large-scale production in the spring of this year. - The European Union has authorized vaccines from both Moderna and Pfizer.
