Dr. Thomas Yadegar, the ICU Director at Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center, tells CNN too many patients just could not resist seeing friends and family during the Thanksgiving holiday.
The California Department of Public Health announced 379 Covid-19 deaths on Thursday, the state's highest one-day total yet, shattering the prior record of 293 lives lost announced on Wednesday. Friday's numbers also cleared the earlier record, with 300 deaths reported. More than 22,000 Californians have died from Covid-19.
California's overall case number is more than 1.7 million, with 52,281 new cases added Thursday. More than 41,000 new cases were announced Friday, as officials noted some were from earlier and had yet been reported.
