Solano County progress? Very low COVID numbers reported today


By Roger Straw, Tuesday, June 8, 2021

Solano County reports only 7 new infections and no new deaths today.  Vaccinate! Stay safe when indoors or in crowds, and remember…

Solano County COVID-19 Dashboard – SUMMARY:

Solano County reported only 7 new COVID cases today, and no new deaths.

About 40 cases over last weekend…
Yesterday’s total of 20 new cases included a negative number (-9) for Vacaville, indicating an adjustment of some kind.  The 6 other Solano cities had a total of 29 new cases, so that 29 – 9 = yesterday’s supposed total of 20.  Stay with me here – it is certain that Vacaville would have had 4 or more new cases per day (based on previous 4 weeks averages). So it is highly likely that the County actually had around 12 new Vacaville cases over the weekend.  The actual total would include 29 from the 6 other cities + about 12 from Vacaville = about 41 new cases.  Got it?  The math would then also indicate that the Vacaville adjustment was approximately -21 cases (41 – 21 = 20).

Who were the 21? Probably from the outbreak at the State Prison in Vacaville
Who were the 21, and why were they counted last Friday and removed today?  Based on an email from Dr. Bela Matyas, my hunch is that they were inmates in the State Prison in Vacaville.  Responding to my question as to the reason for last week’s atypical surge of 108 new cases from Vacaville, Dr. Matyas wrote on June 4 that “There is an outbreak at the state prison, which accounts for most of those cases.”  My BenIndy speculation is that some of those prisoners were initially counted as Solano cases, but later determined to be more properly documented according to the person’s city of residence.

Monthly: Solano County saw 1,288 new cases in April, an average of 43 per day.  In May, Solano reported 920 new cases, an average of 30 per day.  Today, only 7 new cases!

Solano County reported no new deaths today.  The County total is now 244 deaths since the pandemic began.
