As of Dec. 1, Los Angeles County is averaging 2,490 new COVID-19 infections every day, the highest number recorded since Aug. 26, according to health department data.

Ferrer said the real count is likely much higher due to several people testing positive with at-home rapid tests and not reporting the results to health officials or due to people not testing at all.

Makes Democrats feel empowered, doesn’t stop Covid.

I almost died from Covid in 2020, but even I know mask mandates and lockdowns are bogus.

Make sure you mask up before you rob a convenience store. The DA does not want you identified because he will get grief by not charging you.

That was the original strain from Wuhan. The current variant Omicron is very mild. Hope you are feeling better!

Okay, so they caught a cold. Some of them may suffer for a little while. That's about it.

masks can not stop covid, virus is to small. so the graph can not be affected or reduced, raising taxes would be as effective as masks

“I don’t think people in Los Angeles or are going to go for it.”


That’s never stopped these sleazy commiecrats in the past.

They speak of defending democracy yet ignore majority consensus.

Import the sickly, the disease rate goes up.

Stop importing illegals, the disease rate goes down.

By me, It’s a liquid hydrocarbon that efficiently provides energy:)
