MAYOR ERIC GARCETTI ISSUES DIRE WARNING TO ANGELENOS
LA COUNTY REMAINS IN PURPLE TIER
Here's what you need to know!
Los Angeles County remains in the Purple Tier, which is the most restrictive tier in the Blueprint to a Safer Economy. To understand which businesses and activities are open in this tier, please SEE THIS PDF from the California Department of Public Health.
Today, the California Public Health Department issued revised mask rules, mandating that face coverings are required at all times when outside of the home, with some exceptions. For more information and details, please see theOFFICIAL GUIDANCE HERE.
The City of Los Angeles will begin ramping up enforcement on current county public health rules -- citations will be issued and permits will be revoked for those businesses who violate public health requirements that put others at risk.
Today, Mayor Garcetti issued a dire warning to Angelenos emphasizing the following:
Wear a mask when outside of your home
Avoid all non essential travel (even locally)
Stop gathering with those outside of your home
Remain socially distanced in public settings and when around others
On November 13th, Governor Gavin Newsom issued a Travel Advisory for the entire state of California.
