With COVID-19 infection rates sharply increasing since the beginning of November, Los Angeles County om Thursday, Nov. 17, returned to “strongly recommending” that people wear masks in all indoor public settings.

Average daily COVID-related hospital admissions are averaging 97 per day, up 26% from 77 per day last week, and a 54% jump since Nov. 1, Davis said.
