Here we go again.
Los Angeles County is set to reinstate indoor-mask mandates as local COVID-19 infections and related hospital admissions continue to surge.
“There is this common line of thinking that the pandemic is over and COVID is no longer of concern, but these numbers clearly demonstrate that COVID is still with us,” County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said at a press conference Thursday.
The county now averages more than 2,700 new COVID infections per day, up 180% since Nov. 1. Virus-related hospital admissions are now at 192 per day, a 200% increase from the same date, she said.
The “medium” risk level still only makes masking “strongly recommended.”
But Ferrer warned that the county is on track to move to the “high” viral level by next week, which would prompt an indoor-mask mandate.

It’s been two weeks. The curve was flattened.
This is nonsense.

LA should just bring in more unvetted illegals so they can have a real Pandemic.

Guess they don’t believe the “science” that masks are not effective for this virus.
Science deniers!

It would naturally end if people stopped wearing the silly masks.
They don’t want it to end.

Less than twice almost nothing for an infection that is mostly mild or not even noticed.

2700 cases in a county of 9 million. I bet more people here catch herpes.

One thing they never made clear in high school bio was how small the cells in the body are and how many of them there are.
It might have made it an interesting course, but I guess they didn’t want that.

Barbara Ferrer, county health director, without an ounce of medical training. Her doctorate is in social work.
She runs the show, and issues dictates affecting 10 million people in Los Angeles County. At some point the sheeple must awaken and throw these people out on their rear ends.
