LOS ANGELES — Workplaces throughout Los Angeles County are being hit hard by the latest coronavirus wave, with the number of reported case clusters nearly quadrupling since early May.
The sharp rise is the latest wrinkle for the halting efforts by companies looking to bring employees back on something resembling a pre-pandemic schedule.
Among the areas to see infection clusters: airports, food processing companies, aerospace and Hollywood film and television production. This comes as hospitalizations and deaths in L.A. County are rising because of the spread of ultra-infectious subvariants.
