With COVID-19 case numbers steadily rising —enough to push Los Angeles County into the “medium” virus risk level — officials officially extended the mask-wearing requirement on public transit and at transportation hubs on Friday, May 20.
Masks were previously required nationally on public transit and in transportation facilities, but a federal judge struck down the requirement last month. The county initially followed the ruling and the mandate was dropped locally, but when the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention opted to appeal the ruling, the county issued a new health order reinstating the requirement locally.
The county reported 3,180 new COVID-19 cases on Friday, lifting the overall total from throughout the pandemic to 2,929,950. Another 10 virus-related deaths were also reported, raising the cumulative local death toll to 32,074. The county still is not mandating mask-wearing in all indoor public settings, but officials are strongly recommending the practice.
