This is to provide you the revised Los Angeles County Health Officer Order, dated February 10, 2021, to clarify that in light of the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision and the subsequent change made by the State related to Places of Worship in Tier 1, Places of Worship can open for indoor services limited to 25% of indoor capacity and must continue to comply with the required modifications provided by Appendix A: Social (Physical Distancing).

The Health Officer Order and protocols are available on Public Health’s website.

Thank you for your ongoing efforts to promote the health and well-being of Los Angeles County residents.

The County is actively vaccinating healthcare workers, staff and residents at skilled nursing facilities and long-term care facilities, as well as Los Angeles County residents 65 and older.

Starting tomorrow, due to a short supply of vaccines from the State, County sites will only be administering second doses for the remainder of the week. To receive a vaccine at these sites, you must have an appointment or be due for your second dose at these locations, and provide the necessary documentation. If you did not receive an email for your second dose, you can still be seen at your designated location on the day of your second dose, as long as you provide proof of your first dose vaccination.

Quarantining slows the spread of COVID-19. Protect those around you and self-quarantine if you have been around groups of people without face coverings or are a close contact of someone with COVID-19.

We are seeing a downward trend in our numbers, but we need to keep our guard up. Don’t gather with people indoors. If you must gather, do it outdoors, create a stable group (2 other households, and you only see each other), with distancing and face coverings on at all times.

For sports fans, please plan to enjoy the Super Bowl without putting your friends, your family and your neighbors at risk.

Super Bowl parties have the power to derail our recovery and given the likelihood that there are more infectious variants circulating in our community, let’s not take chances with our own health and the health of others by creating easy opportunities for the virus to spread. Be safe and save lives.

2/5/21

Thank you for continuing to stay diligent. Keep wearing your face coverings, keeping distance and avoid indoor gatherings!
