Long Beach officials on Saturday reported a woman in her 70s with underlying health conditions has died from complications due to coronavirus, bringing the total number of deaths in the city to 10.

Of the 10, all had underlying health conditions and seven are associated with long-term care facilities. Two victims were in their 50s, two were in their 60s, one was in their 70s, and five were over 80. Seven victims were women and three were men, according to officials.

Officials reported 332 positive COVID-19 cases, up from the 316 reported on Friday. The number of cases will continue to rise as testing becomes more widely available, health officials have said. This week, Long Beach opened its first drive through testing clinic at the Long Beach City College Pacific Coast Campus that takes about 100 test appointments each day.

Of the city’s 332 cases, 48 are hospitalized, officials said. A total of 69 cases are either residents or staff members at six long-term care facilities in the city.

To slow the spread of the coronavirus, officials have extended the city’s health order through May 15, keeping all non-essential businesses closed. Police officers will also now start citing people for not following the health order, which is a misdemeanor and could cost up to $1,000.

The city and county are also closing down all parks on Sunday, only for the day, to prevent people from gathering in them for Easter. In addition, cloth face masks or coverings are now required inside essential businesses for workers and customers.
