In Santa Clara County, most residents are turning to county-operated testing and vaccination sites rather than their own health care provider, public health officials said Friday during a plea for the county's biggest hospital systems to step it up.
The call from local leaders comes as the omicron-fueled surge pushes healthcare systems to the brink, with testing shortages and understaffed and overworked employees.
"We really need all the large healthcare systems in the county to do their part, so that the burden isn't solely on the county itself, which is currently providing a disproportionate percentage of the testing to our community," Williams said.
