Got your masks handy, Los Angeles?

Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said today that at the current pace of increases in local Covid-related hospitalizations, the county will move into the federal government’s “high” virus activity category within a few weeks, possibly by the end of June. Ferrer has frequently said — and repeated today — that that would trigger a return of mandatory indoor mask wearing in the county, a requirement that was dropped on march 3 of this year. She noted that the rate of hospitalizations could decrease or increase, depending on residents’ actions.

  1. The question you gotta ask is "If we are gonna do masks at the end of June, then why wait?
    I mean, head the issue off early, don't wait until it is a "problem".

    Unless, of course, the issue isn't one of public health but of teaching people to be compliant.

  2. Alameda County just reinstated its mask mandate yesterday. All indoor spaces including grocery stores and gyms. I expect all liberal counties in California to follow shortly.
