Orange County Jail Reports Dramatic Drop in Inmate Infections The amount of Orange County inmates infected with the COVID-19 virus is less than one percent of what it was a month ago, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD) said Feb. 5. The OCSD is crediting the reduction with “robust mitigation efforts” to bring down the rate of infection at the Santa Ana facility. On Jan. 5, the number of general inmates who tested COVID-19 positive reached 1,109. As of Feb. 5, nine inmates were found to be carrying the virus. “Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be challenging for everyone, and the Orange County Jail system has not been immune from this challenge,” Sheriff Don Barnes said in a statement. “Although in December we saw an outbreak in our facilities, we remained steadfast with our strict health and safety protocols, which have proven to be successful throughout the year. This has been accomplished without releasing serious and violent offenders
