LA County health officials decline to impose indoor mask mandate amid 'decent decrease' in cases
ABC 7 ^

Posted on 07/28/2022 8:08:43 PM PDT by matt04

he Los Angeles County Health Department declined Thursday to impose a universal public indoor mask mandate, citing a "decent decrease" in cases and hospitalizations.

Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer made the announcement during a livestreamed meeting.

"Given the declines in case of hospitalization numbers, we're hopeful that the admission rate over the next few days remains under 10 new admissions per 100,000 residents and L.A. County is soon officially moved by (the Centers for Disease Control) to the 'medium' community level," Ferrer said. "As I noted last week, any indication that the county would soon be moving to the medium community level would be a good reason to not move forward with universal indoor masking."

....

Earlier this week, as residents awaited the decision, several cities -- Beverly Hills, El Segundo, Pasadena and Long Beach -- announced they would not enforce an indoor mask mandate if one were implemented.

The El Segundo City Council voted during a special meeting Tuesday night against enforcing a possible mask order.

The Beverly Hills City Council cast a similar vote Monday night. The cities of Long Beach and Pasadena -- both of which operate their own health departments separate from the county -- announced Tuesday they would not issue mask mandates, even if the county did.

On Wednesday, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said cases may have slowed, but he would support whatever health officials decide.

It couldn't have anything to do with four major cities telling Ferrer to F*^k off with her threats of mandates and refusing to enforce them if she dares implement it.

Maybe they want to go home safely at night.

Sounds like ABC is saddened by the news. They can wear all the masks they want and as many as they want. No one is stopping them.

If you wanna wear 6 masks, tape them to your face, a Tyvek suit and face shield, go ahead. Just don’t make me play into your delusions.

The city of Beverly Hills said NO to the mask mandate. I suspect there were many other cities saying the same thing to this person who is not a medical doctor. She makes over $600,000, her husband makes 6 figures and her daughter makes $130,000. All work for the city of Los Angeles. Her and the democrat party policies destroyed 40% of the small business’s in LA.

She herself does not wear a mask as a photo of her at the recent All Star baseball game showed her wearing a mask wrapped around her arm.... disgusting!!

Barbara Ferrer was photographed mask-less at an MLB game two days before she floated this malarkey. It would have been a hard sell anyway, but when municipalities DARED say they wouldn't play her game, she decided -- trust the science -- that a "decrease" in "cases" was "decent."

Look in your science lexicon for the proper definition and measure of "decent." Then look to the latest available documentation of her "public servant" salary. "Total pay & benefits: $613,692.00"

Exactly. There were four major cities that said they would not officially support a mask mandate and not enforce it, I’m willing to bet other cities basically told her the same thing but hadn’t had time to make it official yet. So to say face, she dropped the idea. Can’t have major cities within your jurisdiction telling you to kick rocks and look like you’re in charge.

Exactly. No one is stopping them from wearing a mask, they just refuse to do anything unless you say to their level so then they blame you for their inability to go out to a restaurant, movie, sporting event, etc. Because you won’t do the simple act of putting a mask on your face so they feel safe.

These people will be masks up for the rest of their life.

Isn't it a shame that the electorate in Los Angeles County is either 1) so wildly ill informed, and 2) so wildly complacent, that such "public servant" stuff can go on, and the essentially upper crust of politics make massively more than the median household income in the County, and yet the "peons" pay their "politicos." As ever.

As Mexicans near 50% of the population in LA County, the white, racist, BLM females in LA county government lose more power.
