Colorado COVID Hospitalizations Highest Since First Omicron Surge

0

The latest COVID-19 statistics from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment show that the Omicron strain and its assorted subvariants can result in illnesses far worse than a summer cold. Hospitalizations associated with the virus are at their highest levels in the state since the enormous Omicron surge earlier this year.

Here are the current COVID numbers in major categories, as updated by the CDPHE after 4 p.m. June 15, along with information from our last COVID data roundup, which drew from June 8 data:

1,493,940 cases (up 27,208 from June 8)
63,631 hospitalized (up 331 from June 8)
64 counties (unchanged from June 8)
12,647 deaths among cases (up 48 from June 8)
13,349 deaths due to COVID-19 (unchanged from June 8)
9,113 outbreaks (up 83 from June 8)

Four takeaways:

• The 27,208 new COVID-19 cases for the seven days ending June 15 is a leap of nearly 10,000 from the 17,592 reported on June 8. Daily cases are fluctuating but remain on the high side. The 3,546 infections confirmed on June 9 were the most on a single day since 5,268 on February 2; the number on June 14, the most recent available, was 1,825.

• New hospitalizations dipped slightly, going from 369 on June 8 to 331 on June 15. But daily admissions for COVID-19 remain in triple digits — 101 for the most recent seven-day average — and the 323 patients hospitalized during the week of June 14 was last exceeded on February 22, when the number was 446.

• Figures for deaths attribued to COVID-19 haven’t been updated. However, deaths among cases of the disease slid slightly from June 8 (51) to June 15 (48).

• The state’s seven-day-average positivity rate of 11.89 is roughly the same as it was a week earlier, and still nearly three times over the 5 percent mark the CDPHE prefers not to surpass. Moreover, COVID-19 samples sequenced by the agency during the week of May 29, the most recent for which information is available, show that variants of Omicron continue to rule. According to the department’s breakdown, 59.67 percent of cases were linked to Omicron 2, 23.87 percent to the original Omicron strain, 8.64 percent to Omicron 4, and 7.82 percent to Omicron 5.

Meanwhile, the CDPHE’s June 15 outbreaks update notched its first decline in recent weeks, landing at 72 new or tweaked entries, down from 101 a week earlier. Once again, the total is dominated by the health-care category, with 54 centers cited — and the overwhelming majority of them specialize in senior care.

Also of note are outbreaks at five child-care centers and three summer camps, including the Rocky Mountain Village Easterseals Colorado overnight facility, which reported sixteen staff cases and eight attendee cases. And while the state health department no longer requires most businesses to report outbreaks, a few prominent ones are on the roster, including the Whole Foods branch in the Belmar area and the Nordstrom store in Cherry Creek.
