California remains under statewide lockdown due to surge in number of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations.

L.A. County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer told that tests are being carried out to see if the new mutant strain - which may spread up to 70 per cent more easily than other strains of the virus - is there.

Los Angeles County's top public health official said that patients are dying at rate of once every 10 minutes.

Hospital staff said they are forced to wheel patients into gift shops due to a lack of available room.

Officials worry that Christmas gatherings will fuel another surge that could be evident in a few weeks.

1 in 1,000 Americans has now died of COVID-19.

December set to be the deadliest month since the pandemic began with 63,000 deaths because of the virus; November 36,964 deaths .
