Each of the cities has at least 73 confirmed cases, and combined they account for roughly 27% of the county’s verified coronavirus infections.Although Anaheim has the most confirmed cases in the county, with 79, city spokesman Mike Lyster said its share of the caseload, about 9.5%, continued to be below its portion of the county’s population, 11.2%.
“We know staying in, keeping distance and other extraordinary measures are hard on everyone,” he said Sunday. “But the stable trend in Anaheim’s share of the county’s cases can be a positive sign of managing the outbreak in our city and that these measures are working. We have more tough weeks ahead, but the sooner we get on top of this, the sooner we can return to normal life when safe to do so.”
