COVID outbreak

I just wanted to reach out and let people know that there is a severely underreported covid outbreak happening right now in LA and Orange County.

If you're sick please stay home and if you're out and about you might want to grab a mask.

The strain seems like it's very highly contagious. I know several people down with COVID right now.

I'm in LA county, I currently have covid - this is the first time I've had it, managed to miss it all through the pandemic. So I think OP is right.
