LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nick Barragan is used to wearing a mask because his job in the Hollywood film industry has long required it. So he won't be fazed if the county that's home to Tinseltown soon becomes the first major population center this summer to reinstate rules requiring face coverings indoors because of another spike in coronavirus cases.
“I feel fine about it because I’ve worn one pretty much constantly for the last few years. It’s become a habit,” said Barragan, masked up while out running errands Wednesday.
Los Angeles is the most populous county, home to 10 million residents. It faces a return to a broad indoor mask mandate on July 29 if current trends in hospital admissions continue, county health Director Barbara Ferrer said this week

Good to hear it. Last I was in LA was in March. Westside and Santa Monica still seemed fairly committed to masks, valley and SGV not so much.
I never had fatigue.
Blue state?
yes i am in the SFValley and rarely go to the other side of the hill so i should qualify my statement.
I’m more likely to converse with a tweaking toothless methhead yelling random nonsense than I am with one of these mask wearing dolts.
How else are the minions supposed to be able to hide their identities, so they can burn the cities, so they can have mail in ballots for the mid terms? 😡
I refuse to play the mask game again.
I will not play Simon says in Mesa Arizona either.
If masks are required here again I’ll get a Clayton Moore mask and put it on.
I live in LA County also...I am not happy about the mask mandate coming back again...County Health Director is obsessed with maintaining control over the population...
I feel bad for the school kids who go back to school next month...They have to wear masks again...
I have not heard anything about mask mandate coming back in Orange County...
I wonder if that friend still keeps on wearing the mask...Obviously, it did not prevent her from getting COVID...
Some people really believe that mask will stop the virus from getting into their bodies...
Are people of LA really compliant enough to go through that nonsense again?
Yes. 30% of grocery store shoppers are back to masked again. My area is seriously full of scared weenies. There is a lot of covid going round and some people are sicker than others. They have All Been vaxxed but they are still catching it and sometimes twice. Some have cold symptoms, some are sick in bed, but after 5-7 days they recover. I don’t know why all the fear. It’s not fun but the masks and vaccines don’t stop it.
Hey.. there was a bumpstock ban. That’s something right? They should’ve left trump in. He gave the dems forced masking, travel restrictions, a savior vax and bumpstock bans.
Truth is.. if he told Americans to surrender their last weapon and round. They would comply n call it 4D chess. Btw instead of telling me to shut up or dismiss this.. just consider that it is truth. People hate truth, I know, but he stood by while they stole these freedoms.
Love his foreign policy, but the damage he was part of are freedoms lost that will never be regained.
i’m with you -apparently authoritarians in LA Cnty need to get their ‘control’ fix despite there being absolutely no emergency. i will try to avoid being in a position to have to wear a mask - which will punish restaurants smaller businesses movie theaters so here we go again destroying our economy. and of course i am open to conspiracy theory that they are desperate for fear surrounding the mid-terms so they can wield the power of millions of ballots floating around ...
If you are saying he was no Jimmy Carter, bill clinton,hillary clinton, barack obama or joe biden..I would agree.
Hmmmm..... So, between now and July 29, the deadly and dastardly Covid virus will some how ‘know’ not to infect anyone in Los Angeles.
This stinking virus IS A DAMN COLD, we have gotten to the point where we now have to mask for a cold, our society is becoming more and more like China, where EVERYONE is always masked up!! People are such SHEEP!!
The only way to end this crazy obsession is for everyone to stop testing. Me and the wife are 70 and we never get tested. We never got vaccinated. So if one of us sneezes, it’s a cold or allergies like back in the good old days.
I don’t blame people for being concerned when Covid first broke out in 2020. I was concerned at first too because I have a family member who was immune compromised at the time.
But it became obvious in short order that Covid wasn’t the pandemic the media and government was hyping it out to be. And Fauci should be in a federal penitentiary for his crimes the past two years.
I agree that there is no "emergency"...I do not think the Covid death rate has gone up...I also do not think that hospitals are overwhelmed with Covid patients...
In any case, the masks will not stop the "spread"...Virus will do what it wants to do...
County Health Director is pointing to CDC guideline as the reason for people to wear mask again...She is desperate to reimpose the mask mandate...Thus, she will use any excuse...
