HOSPITALIZATIONS: 60 of Solano’s 351 cases resulted in hospitalizations, an increase of only 1 since yesterday. Relatively good news – a small increase.
ACTIVE CASES: Only 23 of the 351 are active cases, 49 fewer than yesterday’s total. Not sure why this huge drop in active cases – the number has hovered around 70 for the last week. Good news surely. Note that the county does not report WHERE the active cases are. Below you will see that only 10 are currently hospitalized, which leaves 13 of these 23 active cases out in our communities somewhere, and hopefully quarantined.
