The first shipment of vaccines arrived today at 1 of the 9 pre-positioned sites, with the remaining 8 sites receiving their shipment over the next few days. The next allocation of vaccines is expected a week later, and we will continue to receive weekly shipments thereafter starting in January.
The current expected initial allocation for L.A. County is 82,875 doses, and we are expecting two additional allocations in December. This does not include allocations for Long Beach and Pasadena, which have their own independent health departments and are receiving their own allocations. All 82,875 doses in the first shipment will be used to vaccinate healthcare workers, prioritizing those at the highest risk of exposure to COVID-19.
While it will take several months to distribute vaccines widely, there is cause for hope today. In the meantime, please, stay home as much possible, wear your face covering and keep your distance from others. We must protect each other.

Playgrounds are now open under the revised Safer at Home Order
The following activities are permitted with safety modifications including required mask wearing and distancing:
All government and critical infrastructure sectors are open as are all healthcare facilities and services operating under strict infection control requirements; please do not delay seeking needed health or dental care.
Please note that while youth sport teams are permitted to hold conditioning and skill building for team members during the stay at home orders, any team activities involving more than individual training, conditioning or skill building must be cancelled. As a reminder, sport teams are only allowed to include activities that involve no contact, little or no sharing of equipment, players/coaches are always able to remain at least 6 ft. apart from others, and everyone wears a mask. Practices and games are absolutely prohibited at this time.

As cases have surged, we have seen a sharp increase in the number of people becoming very seriously ill from COVID-19 and requiring hospitalization.
Since early November, the daily number of people currently hospitalized for COVID-19 has tripled in just 1 month, from 791 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 on November 1, to 3,299 patients hospitalized today. Each day we continue to see the record number of people hospitalized since the start of the pandemic.
The safest thing you can do during this very difficult time in the pandemic is to stay home as much as possible and to interact only with members of your household. Minimizing the number of encounters is the first strategy for lowering your risk and this means only leaving your house for the most essential activities. When we must leave our homes, there are also steps to take that minimize this risk. We need to wear face coverings at all times when we are with people we don’t live with and we need to keep distance of at least 6 feet from other people as much as possible.
