Today, Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer encouraged residents to safely celebrate Memorial Day. “We are all excited that this Memorial Day looks very different from the last Memorial Day – it gives me great satisfaction that so many of us are able to meet with family and friends again,” she said. “If you are celebrating with an elderly person who has not been vaccinated, celebrate safely outdoors using masks and distance or virtual. I encourage everyone who has not yet been vaccinated to make time for vaccinations. The vaccine provides the best protection and keeps Los Angeles County transmission low.”
